Comment Was this really necesary as a slashdot article? (Score 1) 359
Though this review might make a nice comment for a real article, it doesn't seem to make much of an article by itself. It merely points out a few simple facts (BSD != force openness), its not a series of revelations. Perhaps if we had gotten a handful of different well written reviews, from both perspectives, things would be different.
The little jibe at the BSD advocates in the article was pointless, since there are plenty of GPL people who feel exactly the same way.
Perhaps a simple, side by side, unbiased and unopinionated comparison of the licenses would have been more appropriate?
