(11:15)</li> <li>Bradley pointed out that every other copyleft license allows for relicensing under newer versions automatically (i.e., they have an automatic -or-later ), and Karen asked whether <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Development_and_Distribution_License">Sun's CDDL does</a>. Bradley checked later, Karen was correct that <a href="http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/download/Main/licensing/cddllicense.txt">CDDL's later version clause (Section 4)</a> is similar to the GPL policy. (23:00) However, Fontana wrote to us on IRC to say <q>CDDL's license upgradeability clause is not entirely like GPL's. The GPL states that if no version number is specified, any version can be used. CDDL does not say this; it seems to assume that it will always be clear what version CDDL code will be distributed under, whereas GPL seems to assume otherwise.</q></li> <li>Bradley mentioned the <a href="http://www.h-online.com/open/features/Defence-of-the-GPL-realm-1769121.html">interview he did with <cite>The H Online</cite> on GPL enforcement</a>.
