You are quite right, of course. I always take what Jonathan writes about with a pinch of salt. To be sure, the man's got some great ideas and he's got some vision. But unfortunately, he's becoming more of a marketeer then he ever was before, in the most negative sense. That's such a pity. Sure, one should look for new ways to bring the word out. But going to extremes just to get attention? What about collateral and long term damage that GPL could cause to Sun?
