After the XFree86 4.4 saga, another license disagreement is brewing. This time between the FSF and the apache Software foundation, over teh compatibility of Apache license and GPL. This might have ramifications over Debians packaging of Apache software.
Brian Behlendorf was in Madras a few days back (2/19) and he mentioned that -
* Several GNU people, including Eben Moglen, do like the Apache license
* Some of the wording in GPL3 may well be inspired by the Apache license
* "Currently incompatible with GPL" is just semantics
And isn't this slightly old news? Even slashdot got tired of discussing it (not surprising, given the usual low attention span of that place)
