EULA, GPL, CDDL and BSD comparison

There’s a really neat visual comparison of these four licenses over at http://blogs.sun.com/chandan/entry/copyrights_licenses_and_cddl_illustrated—well worth viewing if you’re in any doubt at all as to what each allows.

Seeing things like this only helps confirm my feelings about the GPL: it’s a virus.

I also can’t help but think that whoever came up with the idea of restricting our rights to guarantee freedom is an utter hypocrite.

As they say, bombing for peace is like fucking for virginity. But let’s not go there.
