Why can't gnu or rms take any criticism. Is this a religion with
imam Stallman as a leader. I guess it is.
Having talked to RMS, I can state that his principle is that
intellectual property is a abomination. Also, he sees "ownership" of
physical objects (which he accepts) more as a matter of stewardship
than property in the sense of Anglo-American law. Whether you agree
with him or not, his position is consistent and unlikely to change.
Now, can someone set up gnu.flame for discussions of this sort, so
they stay out of technical newsgroups?
