GPL 3: Will Someone Lose, No Matter What?

,----[ Quote ]
| On the other hand, however, The 451 Group's Zachary suggested that
| perhaps Novell will be able to achieve binary compatibility with
| other Linux distros by working with industry organizations such as
| the Linux Foundation
| 
| "There are some opportunities to stay in sync, even in a fork,"
| according to the analyst.

GPLv3, Linux and GPLv2 Compatibility

,----[ Quote ]
| Over time, more and more projects currently released under the GPL
| adopt the Linux license, because it is more legally precise and more
| comprehensible to the average developer than either the GPLv2 or
| GPLv3. Eventually, Linux distributions switch over to the Linux
| license, leaving only a small branch of GPLv3 (or v4 or v5) code
| to be downloaded separately (if the user chooses to do so).
