    Old X11R5 quotes, from the #oldfediverse, all from a single page https://web.archive.org/web/20110704183825/http://identi.ca:80/x11r5

    > Gnome's help is not unix
    > fontana, imo (biased), it's almost universally true that #gplv3 makes any given #gpl right clearly than #gplv2. But we're debating v2
    > Juggling video codecs, resolutions, aspect ratios, pixel aspect ratios and bitrates in my hand
    > Why don't i have no privacy

    X11R5, you live on in my heart

    #FrostWire is a #FreeCode (GNU #GPL) media player, with built-in search functions and #BitTorrent client. It's awesome!

    Right now at #LibrePlanet: Brett Smith is talking about barriers to use of the #GPL. A wishlist for resources and changes includes: one single focused document; an emphasis on readability; license notice friendliness and tooling.

    Clarification: The article has the usual #FUD; my rebuttal is that the #GPL is perfectly good for commercial applications (in re-reading that, I see how it can be misinterpreted as "it is FUD that the GPL is perfectly good.")

    @craigmaloney #StatusNet was not only released under the #GPL, but the #AGPL (Affero GPL). The AGPL was explicitly designed to also keep remote services free as in freedom. The GPL unfortunately doesn't defend rights when it comes to webservices etc. but (if I remember the legalese correctly) AGPL has the language of "conveying" instead of "distributing" etc.

    @taknamay @denommus GPL licenses are "share-alike" licenses. If you use someone else's code, you must pass on to your downstream users the same freedoms the upstream gave you.

    Compare that with the typical EULA, where you receive a (very limited) set of allowed uses, some of which you may be allowed to pass downstream.

    TL;DR: Read #GPL, read #EULA. Now you know GPL gives you more freedom.

    We are currently making money with a #GPL licensed bit of software. We wrote the audio game #MineRacer and are currently selling it with the GPL license. It's at https://2mb.co/mr One thing I like, is it helps keep prices reasonable. …

    As a VCP5-DCV and current VCP6-DCV, let me just say #VMware has a long and inexcusable history of #GPL violations.
