What on earth would be the point of that? It won't magically become free just because the "wider community" doesn't want to make it free. If you are seriously suggesting that we would compromise our principles because the "wider community" doesn't like them, then sod off. They do not have anything to add to the discussion. Particularly since it's not even a discussion at present, but merely those of us who've been thinking about this stuff for a long time shooting down the FUD of those who haven't thought about it at all. -- .''`. ** Debian GNU/Linux ** | Andrew Suffield : :' : http://www.debian.org/ | `. `' | `- -><- |
