if license is all that important, how come hurd is where it is?
Because Linux is GPL. Hurd was started because GNU project wanted a Free kernel tocomplete the GNU Operating System. Once Linux is available under GPL that goal is alreaday achieved, we have GNU/Linux as a variant of complete GNU Operating System . Only motivation to go
So why won't the FSF finish off the HURD and get a proper GNU OS out under the GPLv3? Because Linux is *NOT* a GNU project.
I promise, I will call it GNU/HURD.
Once HURD is finished, the OS will be called only GNU.
