Version 3 of the GPL

Some people said that the version 3 of the GPL license will cause the Linux world to break up. Now that the GPL3 is out, does this prophecy prove to be right? Who's going to adopt GPL3 and who's going to stick with GPL2?

I know that Samba adopted the GPL v3 and didn't hear about any other project doing so, but I don't know if the open source movement is on the verge of breaking up. Time will tell.
