I see most people are discussing BSD VS GPL v3 and some wonder why on earth do we need more than one implementation of the rsync protocol.

My view is that having more than one choice is good. It is good for both people and companies that we have BSD and Linux. It is good we have both BSD and GPL.

Sometimes, having too many choices is bad because it leads to fragmentation, creates support and technical issues and leads to analysis paralysis and procrastination. But it's not the case here.
