[ILUG] Irish Times Article Attacking GPL

[ILUG] Irish Times Article Attacking GPL

while I disagree with the propagandaa MS'y aspects of it, I think a lot of
Irish companies may unknowingly have pieces of GPL code in their
commercial products, if not only graphics libraries and stuff like that,
and it is normally out of laziness and no understanding of software
licenses by dimwit software engineers who are too lazy .. :-), or managers
who don't care.
