Folks, this is just plain a major violation of the
Principle of Least
Amazement. RCS is ideal for keeping track of my
configuration files
in /etc. What do we gain by removing it?
Less GPL code in FreeBSD?
not a problem unless you plan in shipping a changed version of
it on your product??
Most new versions of GPL licensed code are converted to Version 3 GPL .
This is blocking FreeBSD if they keep GPL licensed code in base ,
because commercial companies usingFreeBSD are not able to use
FreeBSD any more if the FreeBSD switches to Version 3 GPL .
This obstacle is in the base system GCC : It stayed in an older
version , and necessitated to switch to Clang/LLVM .
Difficulty of such a switch is apparenly known .
Therefore cleaning base from GPL licensed code is a vital
requirement for further progress WITH RESPECT TO FreeBSD Project
structure .
Thank you very much .
sure but lets keep the one one in the the tree untill there is a
replacement ready to commit. ro 10 will have NO RCS which is a POLA.
