I don't think that the FSF created the GFDL by guessing at what the problems were. Mind you, if David is claiming that publishers have problems with the GPL, then I think that it is up to him to back up those claims by stating what the problems are. The one problem that he did bring up, the problem of the source requirement, isn't very convincing to me. -- Hubert Chan - email & Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA (Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net) Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
