This article is a rather handy review of the differences:
http://software.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=06/01/17/1454213

I'm not entirely clear on the introduction of "propagation", though. What do 
they mean when the say: "It appears that the FSF is subtly expanding the 
scope of the license and trying to cover some areas that were not explicitly 
covered by the GPLv2, and abused by some parties."

Is this a reference to the problem of web sites using GPL-licensed code like a 
CMS? What other cases does it cover?

Regards,
Tom
