Having offended everyone else in the world, Linus Torvalds calls own lawyers a ‘nasty festering disease’

“I actually think we *should* talk about GPL enforcement at the kernel summit, because I think it’s an important issue,” Torvalds gently began, “but we should talk about it the way we talk about other issues: among kernel developers. No lawyers present unless they are in the capacity of a developer and maintainer of actual code, and in particular, absolutely not the Software Freedom Conservancy.”

“The GPL ensures that nobody is ever going to take advantage of your code. It will remain free and nobody can take that away from you. I think that’s a big deal for community management.”
