I’m fine with you expressing your opinion, but please keep in mind that it’s a discussion to be had first and foremost among GNU stakeholders. It’s unfortunate that we’ve seen people not involved in GNU be much more vocal than GNU hackers on this list. It’s not been helping. > Finally "endorsing" the text would give the rebel group a legitimacy which > they neither have, nor deserve.

Interesting; I’ve been a co-maintainer of Guile and Guix for some years and I haven’t seen you there. Thanks, Ludo’. PS: It’s telling that yet another insulting message passed moderation!
