Now, isn't
that heart warming? Some people would
bet their lives on it, so to speak. The GNU GPLv3 continues to gain support,
despite the disinformation which is being spread.
PatientOS is a free healthcare information system released under GPL 3.0. This enterprise wide software is designed for healthcare facility physician, nurses, pharmacy, laboratory and other clinicians and departments.
With an eye on Palamida, it seems safe to say that the licence has broken a mental barrier.
“
I believe that the GPLv3 is a very valuable addition to FOSS licenses and solves many of the challenges faced by GPLv2. Companies distributing FOSS should consider it and companies using FOSS should be prepared, in most cases, to accept it”.
