gplv3-archive
The GPLv3 Drafting website, gplv3.fsf.org, was used for public consultation and communication about the drafting of GPLv3 and version 3 of other GNU licenses which were published in 2007.
The site was turned into a static archive in 2021, but there is still some archival work remaining. We plan to create a guide to the site to help people explore the GPLv3 drafting history and fix a few small remaining issues.
Check back for information about the GPLv3 archive in the future.
An offline version of the archive is available here. Note it is 767 Megabytes.
The original site had a system for querying comments that didn't make sense in the archive site. Instead, here is the result of querying for all comments:
Work remaining: As we created the archive, we noticed that GFDL and GSFDL comments were not displayed in the interactive comment page. Our system for archiving those comments needs to be reworked in order to restore them. This page will also describe the drafting process and an overview of the archive.
