Dan's nailed him to the wall on this one. Title should be forking gnu *not* Toppling linux. There would be a bunch of forks and I would guess a good deal of GPL3 stuff would die on the vine..

Fork gnu sounds a bit rude.

I would guess a good deal of GPL3 stuff would die on the vine.. Essentially, Stallman and friends are looking to room with the XFree86 guys.
If 1/10th of the resulting forks were as successful as the XFree86/X11 fork, the benefit to Linux would be huge.
I say, bring it on!
