Can we please rename this working title Sebastien? I don't think we have any right (not a legal opinion, but a moral opinion) to make a new license and name it GPL. If there is an interest in making a license couldn't we give it a arbitrary working name like project: razor-sharkfish with legislative powers.. just saying GPL man.. it's gonna cause some confusion --TheOtherRob 16:14, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure how supportive the FSF will be of making changes to the GPL, but in the interest of supporting discussion, I've formatted the page into two columns with the text of the current GPL (GPLv3) on the left, and the text for proposed changes on the right. Qubit 03:35, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

As many of you know, the Open Source Hardware Definition v0.3 has been released. As a point of comparison for where one could take the GPL, here's a Comparison of the Open Source Software Definition and the Open Source Hardware Definition. Qubit 04:05, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
