Except that we now seem to have had the (non-existent) problem redefined for us: rather than the previous "_promotion_" (which I take to mean "marketing") "of proprietary software" (as I've said, I'd prefer not to see "promotion" in that sense of _any_ software on the Planet, it's neither a marketing nor an advocacy organ), now it's simply "_favorable mention_ of proprietary software"--apparently exclusive of any context whatsoever--that requires comment (denunciation?) from the Foundation Board. Not at all the sort of "bridge" I was looking for. I hope the Board has better things to do than to police the "purity" of Planet GNOME at the FSF's behest to spare us from seeing non-negative mention of non-free software being made with impunity. _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
