Concur. And if I am honest, I could not be bothered to
look up the
license. Like you, I avoid Ubuntu like the plague. I went back to
dumped Ubuntu and went back to Debian around Gutsy. Between the
broken encryption in the installer and the beginnings of what I saw
as the writing on the wall (which has borne out over the years),
I'm much happier with pure Debian.
I was doing Sarge back in the day when I tried Ubuntu 6.10. I still
have the CD I'd burned. I used it for about 90 days and went back when
Etch came out. I may have already mentioned I left Debian for Arch
when I discovered GFDL packages in non-free. I did Arch and from
scratch for awhile, then Gentoo and from scratch after that.
Unity is GPLv3, btw. I suppose after several years of development it
might reach a point where it could be ported around without so much
effort. If Mr. Morrison is correct when he says Unity requires
excessive low level patching (and I have no reason to think
otherwise), I imagine its development strategy will largely be
Canonical's burden. One might think that's what they wanted all along.
