True. GPL is definitely not FREE software. Freedom doesn't have different types. Something is free or it is not free. GPL software is not free as i can not do whatever i want with it. > > Getting rid of GPL is a good thing, and well worth any (debatable) I fully agree. So why all this lies about much higher performance and others? I don't consider CLANG to be a great success. I consider it acceptable replacement of GCC. i just hate hype and lies. ALWAYS.
