Every once in a while that a similar license discussion emerges, I see a clear pattern: Many,many people do not understand the GPL. In my opinion, this is the major drawback of the GPL: It's complexity. I've read it a dozen of times and still I'm not sure about some corner cases. This leads to a) Programmers who are not willing to use it and prefer a much simpler license, such as BSD. b) To people spreading misinformation about the GPL that already worsens this situation.
