I will certainly be among the them. I do not understand what you mean in these paragraphs. Please explain. What do you propose for a big organization as FSF and GNU? They are under the control of some developer/activists and some activist/developers. The former side more with developing software and care less about freedom and the later are the other way around. But anyway, everyone is part of the ecosystem. We must reach a consensus to move on, instead of combating each other. _______________________________________________ Discussion mailing list Discussion@lists.fsfellowship.eu https://lists.fsfellowship.eu/mailman/listinfo/discussion
