Let the pi$$ing match begin on GPL v3

Well the FSF has responded to Microsoft's declaration that they are not bound by the "anti-Microsoft" provisions of the GPL v3.  Matt Asay writes about it in his blog and says that clearly the gauntlets have been thrown down.  Of course Matt being the open source evangelist says that there will be plenty of people coming forward to the help the FSF and that Microsoft, if they push this could be in a heap of trouble.  I am not so sure.  I am not sure if the FSF crowd really wants to see the courts finally rule on some of the theories wrapped up around the GPL.  Mitchell has a good article up on a recent ruling that could have implications in any potential legal ruling on this stuff.  Me personally, I would like to see the courts get their hands on this and get a definitive answer, rather than the perpetual pi$$*ng match that we currently operate under with this stuff.
