General Unix Well, we all have used Unix, in one form or another (maybe even through embeded products). But which one is your favorite flavor of Unix-based/Unix-alike OSes? Read more and vote! Update: SHAME on you, who ever you are: Messing/hacking with go2poll's code and altering the results in favor of FreeBSD. By doing so, you are doing MORE BAD than good to your favorite platform.

Er, standards generally don't have licenses attached to them (unless it's protected by something like an NDA). GPL software can use open standards just as well as the next guy - XML, HTTP, TCP/(IP|UDP), SOAP, Jabber, SVG, Postscript, the freedesktop.org standards, FHS, LSB ... these are all standards. They are also all standards to which GPL software can and does cater. So, BSD licensing vs. GPL licensing is orthogonal to the open standards issue.
