GCC运行环境豁免条款再次狠狠地打了苹果的耳光

今年 1 月 27 日发表的 《GCC运行环境豁免条款 (英文版)》 再次狠狠地打了苹果的耳光。

原先的豁免条款如下：

// As a special exception, you may use this file as part of a free software
// library without restriction. Specifically, if other files instantiate
// templates or use macros or inline functions from this file, or you compile
// this file and link it with other files to produce an executable, this
// file does not by itself cause the resulting executable to be covered by
// the GNU General Public License. This exception does not however
// invalidate any other reasons why the executable file might be covered by
// the GNU General Public License.

Qt 4 将提供 GPLv3 授权选项

在 Google campus 举行的 KDE 4 Release Event 上，Trolltech宣布将提供 GPLv3 授权选项。许多国内媒体将这一变动称为"以GPLv3授权发布"，很明显这与事实是存在差距的。

OpenBSD发布了4.2的主题曲100001 1010101。FSF雇佣的法律打手SFLC最终不得不承认了自己的失败。

The starting line is nervous
we burst upon the course
Electric is our passion
An open hearted force
