Mhhh... is the final GPL out yet? This is not coherent with Stallmans interview and it does not make sense either. Having to maintain a proper source tree for each and every source is nonsense. It will lead to a growing number of incompatible source distros, because maintenance will be a nightmare. The community should contact FSF to get the real reason for such utter nonsense and speak out against it. After all the FSF is (should be) community driven. cheers Erich Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
