Just listened to it. An implicit lesson in the difference between 'Open Source' (=pragmatic - better ways to make money and advance corporate interests) and Free Software (=principled - about ensuring individual freedom and enabling sharing communities). I found it telling that the BBC programme did not once mention either Stallman, GNU, or the Free Software Foundation, despite lengthy discussion of Linux and Torvalds. A shame that it omitted half of the story. But then, I suppose, if you construe democracy as a better way to do shopping, as the programme seemed to want to do, it's hardly surprising you find Stallman inconvenient. mac -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
