It doesn't make much difference relicensing because most of the codes involved are in GPL v2 or later anyways. So I think the best strategy is to wait and see what comes up. But maybe GPLv3 can help us counter pontential Tivotization (
i.e proprietary competing products using OLPC codebase ... depends how far its good....)<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 7/13/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Greg KH</b> <<a href="mailto:greg@kroah.com">greg@kroah.com
