It's so easy for us in the open source world to get confused about what exactly the GPL covers, and what it doesn't. Today, IT Manager's Journal published a great story that interviewed three key lawyers about the general myths spread through the open source community about GPL, and provide great answers to misconceptions such as:
- The GPL is viral
- The GPL is unenforceable
- You can't charge for GPL software
- The "liberty or death" clause applies absolutely
...and more. Definitely worth a read for anyone doing open source development, especially all you third-party Joomla component providers.
