Re: Replacing GNU

[David Lang]

you are going to find both camps (and everything in between) as well as people 
who see nothing wrong with proprietary software involved with any open/free 
software project. The bigger the project, the more variation you will see.

The kernel is GPLv2, so there are not big discussions about it except sometimes 
at the edge where interfacing with third party software.
