Just had to look up fuchsia. <div><br /></div><div>Was also reading about Intel's version of Linux yesterday. It's called 'Clear Linux' and is very minimal, designed to have containers bolted onto it, like CoreOS. I've just had a better look at that, too, and it seems Intel are using the Creative Commons license. Not sure if that's more or less gooder than the GPL or what? </div><div><br /></div><div>Everybody seems to want a piece. </div><div><br /></div><div>Neal. <br /><br /><br />28.

Is the GPLv2 strong enough?...<br /></blockquote><div>It had better be, after the FSF's machinations there is no way Linux will be moving to v3.<br /></div><div>Even Bradley Kuhn was annoyed with the backroom strong-arming that was attempted (and said as much in an episode of FAIF).<br /><br /></div><div>As
it stands though, I don't think the license really matters. LT and GKH
seems to be pursuing a BSD-style "do not sue, work with; slowly, slowly
catchy monkey" policy. And I think it's working by-and-large. Although
anyone developer could press the big red button (as with EMC in Germany,
the case is apparently going to appeal).<br /><br /></div>The bigger
question for me is, what will Fuchsia bring? It's more MIT/BSD-based.
Will corporates jump-ship to that so they never need to give back, or
will they realise that cooperation is actually the way forward?<br /><br /></div>J.<br /></div></div></blockquote></div> </body>
