Linux Kernel to Remain GPL v2 -- 3:52 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Linus Torvalds made this post on the Linux kernel mailing lists, stating that the kernel itself will remain GPL v2 even when GPL v3 is finalized. I suspected it would be too big of a PITA to get permission from all of the authors. Plus, I don't see a ton of benefit for the kernel proper. Thanks Slashdot.
