Has there been some major shift in the community opinion of the GPL I missed? I got someone in another conversation comparing GPL to an STD. As if the requirements are somehow unreasonable compared to the more permissive and in my opinion less community friendly BSD and MIT licenses.
Personally feel having an obligation to contribute back to the projects or community you built something on is a good thing. But its why I am also eyeing the Rust based rewrites of somethings suspiciously.
