posicion de linus en realcion a la gpl y el kernel

And so is Linus considering a change in licensing for the kernel?

    No. I think the BSD license is a great license, but it absolutely doesn't
do _at_all_ what I believe in. I'm a big believer in people giving back to the
community, and I'm also a big believer in the fact that sometimes they need
some encouragement in the form of rules to do so - just to keep them honest.
The GPL keeps everybody honest.
