I believe that most corporate legal departments (who are the ones controlling what licenses can/can’t be used, not the engineers) received GPLv3 as an end to simple ways to guarantee that GPL had no possibility of bringing legal trouble. Even if it’s technically possible to comply with GPLv3 without open sourcing proprietary code, there’s enough caveats/hoop jumps involved that it was seen as too risky to even try. They don’t want, “no legal issues as long as”, they want a flat, unconditional “no legal issues ever”. |
