I think you are intelligent enough to understand it on your own.

BTW, I know asking question is good, but sometimes try to answer other people's questions, it's good too!

It really was.

I'm with Joshua Gay (former employee of the FSF Licensing & Compliance Team) on this:

    It is not clear to me that there is any contradiction between the SFLC statement and the FSF’s statement on the matter of Linux and ZFS. That is, I can’t really find how the SFLC and FSF differ in their interpretation GPLv2 and CDDL.

Given the lack of independent corroboration, it's certainly reasonable for you to assume that I'm mistaken or lying.
