The GPLv3 debates are drawing to a close. By the end of the year, it may have become reality. Whether or not the Linux kernel team will adopt the new license, however is still up for debate.

Linux can't be made GPLv3 even

Linux can't be made GPLv3 even if Torvalds wanted...

The kernel is not the property of Torvalds.. it belongs to the community of developers.

To switch to GPLv3 the permission of every person that contributed must be granted. That's almost impossible.
