The Free Software Foundation ('FSF') this summer published the final, official new version of the GNU General Public License, GPLv3. The new version is the result of extensive public comment and heated debate, and could have far-reaching effects on the use of open source software. GPLv3 is the successor to GPL version 2 (GPLv2), first published in 1991, used extensively today, and among the most popular open source licenses available.
GPLv3's key changes include:
New Terms for Patents
Responding to what it calls the 'unwise and ill-considered application of patent law to software' in the years since it released GPLv2, the FSF includes in GPLv3 provisions focused on patents that address in different ways the patents of: 1) entities that modify or otherwise contribute to software that is covered by the GPL, 2) entities that distribute GPL-covered software (whether or not they also modify or otherwise contribute to the software), and 3) non-contributing, non-distributing entities that enter into patent-related agreements with contributors or distributors.
