I never stated that you are wrong about why you feel v3 is better for |
| 24 |
you, I only stated that if you are worried about the "tivoization" |
| 25 |
issue, then you have a long time to be worried, as it only affects the |
| 26 |
kernel. Also, since the Linux kernel is not going to change licenses, |
| 27 |
this whole thing really isn't an issue at all. |

I'm sorry, but "tivoized" is not a verb. Please explain what you mean |
| 32 |
by this. |
