Many groups are exceedingly worried about parts of GPL3.
Not only commercial companies who may not have been obeying the
general spirit of the GPL, but also people writing software that
is BSD licensed are worried about having GPL3 utilities
included in a software release, and having GPL3 source residing in
the local CVS tree.
