“Why I use the GPL” by Zed Shaw

An interesting read that I think is spot-on.

I don’t see any statement that clearly says “this rant is mainly because I chose the wrong license for Mongrel”, but beyond that his points about the GPL fostering contributions is 100% correct.

I dunno. I tend to choose the “default license” of the language / framework I’m building in: maybe I’ll need to rethink that.
