I agree Microsoft has too much of the market share and Free Software
should be kicking their butts. I have to correct the bug report a bit
though. One way we could achieve this Free Software bliss is by only
having Free Software in the Ubuntu Base install (by the FSF guidelines).
Richard Stallman has often said that a distro with non-free packages
creates the space for more proprietary software to creep in. This seems
to be true with the current state of things. I don't thing that Ubuntu
should sacrifice Functionality just replace the Functionality of the
Proprietary Software with Free Software packages that do the same job.
The only way to achieve this is by Rejecting the Proprietary Software
and force developers to either release their code in a free software
license or by replacing their code with ours. Then we will have both the
amazing powered Software and the full power of Free Software Ethics at
our disposal to trample the competition.
