I'm not concerned with it. If *BSD can thrive with it's license, I don't see why it's a problem for linux. HP is going to pay me to work on the code regardless of the license. Projects I work on privately happen to be GPL though I'm not religous about it. If people choose NOT to volunteer time/effort on dual licensed code, I understand and respect that. There are enough worthy GPL only projects out there. I'm speaking for myself and NOT for HP. grant
