I can think of at least one big reason: the FreeBSD base system should favor the 2-clause Simplified BSD License (aka New BSD License aka FreeBSD License) and compatible licenses. GPLvN, where N is *any* version number currently extant, is *not* a compatible license: it is a one-way valve. -- Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ]
