Hi,

Could someone clarify the difference between GPL+Exception and ASF?
I'm interested both in the general differences but also specifically:
  - Why do you guys prefer GPL+Exception over ASLv2 ?
  - Why do the Apache guys prefer ASLv2 over GPL+Exception ?

(please tell me that there is some tangible
difference here, and not just some NIH crap :D)

Also, why did GNU go with GPL+Exception this time and not LGPL?

Thanks.


Regards,
martin
