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.

I am not saying that BSDL code is responsible for the creation of standards. I am saying is is responsible for the quick adoption of standards. These are two VERY different things.
Let me ask you: How good is a standard if nobody uses it?
BSDL code leads to the quick adoption of standards because _everyone_ can use it. Even evil microsoft or whoever. This makes a lot of sense, and this is why I feel that a lot of GPL'd code is wasting it's potential. But I suppose we all have own opinions.
