What, exactly, I mean besides the totallyincorrect FUD spread by MS, is the 'viral' nature of the GPL? If I understand correctly, you are simply pissed off because you cannot take the work of someone else, add your name to it and sell it as proprietary.

You NBM FUDsters have been chanting this 'viral' mantra long enough. Like the judge told newSCO, just before newSCO finally admitted there was no System V code in Linux, put up or shut up.
