Soapbox: FLOSS

Soapbox: FLOSS: CNET op/ed here, about difference audiences with different needs: "Earlier this year, I wrote that the General Public License version 3 (GPLv3) would bring the open-source and free-software communities to a critical juncture. While some scoffed, the decision of the Free Software Foundation (FSF) to discount the concerns of commercial open-sourcers with the latest draft of GPLv3 threatens to split the community and slow the growth of free/libre/open-source software (FLOSS)." I don't know what to think of this hypothesis yet; what's your opinion? Got any thoughts on how the various Adobe technologies might be used by either group, both, stuff we should be considering? Thanks.
