Is your favorite Linux distro entirely GPL licensed?

The CDDL was accepted as definitely OSS compliant by bopensource.org 
within 14 days and without to mention problems.

The GPL did take a longer time to get approved because the GPL license text is 
in conflict with the OpenSource definition. The approval was given with a 
longer delay after the FSF explained that the GPL has to be interpreted in a 
way that makes it OSS compliant.

So are you kidding?
