No, my argument is, "If you want to interact directly with Linux kernel code in kernel-space, then you have to abide by it's license, which is GPLv2". That's it. If you wish to use open source code by another license, wonderful, I'm not telling you what you can, and can not do, but please, do not violate the license of the code I contributed under GPLv2. ZFS could be the best filesystem ever to grace this planet, that's fantastic, but given that the creators of that code placed it under a license that was specifically designed to not be compatible with Linux to prevent it from ever being used on Linux, well, you can see why I really don't care about it. Why would I? Those copyright owners (well license owner at this point in time) could fix this all tomorrow if they wanted to. But they do not, so _THEY_ are the people you should be upset at. Not at the Linux kernel developers who are giving you a kernel on which to use on your systems, for free, under the GPLv2. Our position has always been very clear and upfront. And really, so has the ZFS license creators. So why is anyone upset about all of this? Nothing new has changed here with the license of anything. best of luck! greg k-h
