Wheeler D. A. (2011). Make Your Open Source Software GPL-Compatible. Or Else.. Released 2002-05-06, revised 2011-04-26. The article remarked that:
The FSF prefers the GPL license, so the FSF directory statistic may be biased in the percentage of GPLed software it registers, but the directory still provides strong additional evidence that the GPL is a widely used license for FLOSS.
Wheeler, D. A. (2011). "How to Evaluate Open Source Software / Free Software (OSS/FS) Programs". The Free Software Foundation's "Free Software Directory" is somewhat smaller, but they work hard to make sure their information is accurate (in particular, they check licenses carefully).
