OOPS, not so fast...have you seen the stir GPL 3 is causing? Turns
out if
you plan on using GPL 3 code in a commercial product, there will be
several
pending restrictions-- which your customer/client may find not only
objectable, but in TiVo's case, completely destructive.
And I quote:
*(The GPL 3) no longer works in the "fairness" sense. It's purely a
firebrand, and only good for the extremist policies of the FSF.
It's no
longer a nice balance that a lot of people can accept, and that a
lot of
companies can stand behind once you explain it to them.*
