Indeed. I've heard a few descriptions of RMS - most of them uncomplimentary. Having met him, I can see why many people dislike him - he does come across very much as the stereotypical geek with no social skills (mind you, me writing that does involve a certain amount of "pot, kettle, black" - fill in the rest !) I can understand his POV, though I'm very much in the pragmatism camp and use a mix of free and closed software. But, I respect his position - and I respect the fact that without people like him, we would not have the freedoms we have now. That's important to remember. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
