Hmm..I'm sorry, I confused Eric Raymond's page with the opensource concept, and since this was in an "anti-GPL" message there was a confusion. The opensource concept is based on Netscape's recent decision, they are opening a space for other licenses, therefore promoting them, but they don't are not pretending to attack GPL. I was wrong in that GPL is also considered opensource..ah well there's nothing new in their reasoning. sorry for the mixup, Pedro.
