Re: Pretty Good Article
Oh stop it. I was applauding that the author addressed it in a fairminded way; I redefined nothing. Please be constructive. (Outright distortion?? Go away.)

My bad, surely you would never imply that you had, "ethical" issues with Sveasoft...

I thought it was good that the author addressed it at all -- that was my point. He didn't come down on either side, but he gave a "small nod" to the issue, which might help explain to a new reader why there are forks in the first place. You really didn't have to reflexively and protectively quote the article.

| I don't get this "comunist""socialist" mentality that some people have cloaked the open software movement in.
Sveasoft has the right to take open software and modify it and sell it. he has a right to eat and make a living.
Redhat has slowly tried to get out from under the cloak and has come up with a "funny" way of getting around it.
I wish the whole thing was rewritten (and they have tried to no avail) so that we can finally get a Linux distribution that can truly compete with Windows and the popularity it shares in thousands of "actually" usable and enjoyable software.
no this is not a troll line just my views.
I dual boot 4 OS's but when I need to do several things that I need to get done it's always in XP, because that is where the software IS.
Even games are barely making a scratch in Linux, then there's the poor drivers for hardware, this mentallity is what keeps ATI from releasing software for their AIW cards and many many other companies too.
I like Sveasoft and 20.00 dollars for their hardwork is a penny's worth to me. |
