GPL3 first public draft due early 2006

Stephen Shankland writes in C|Net News:

The first draft of the next version of the General Public License should be released for public comments in early 2006, according to a key player in the effort to modernize the foundation of the free and open-source programming movements.

That will begin a public debate that should end with GPL version 3 in early 2007, said Eben Moglen, the Columbia law school professor who represents license overseer the Free Software Foundation. Moglen spoke in an interview at the LinuxWorld Conference and Expo here [San Francisco].
