It didn't attract many peope, no, but it did spur Canonical to do Gobuntu, on which the next gNewSense will be based, so I think some gNS activity has been put on pause until Gobuntu is released. I also hope Fedora will go fully free soon. > I thought that one of the main advantage for a project to be > part of the GNU was that the FSF was the sole copyright holder in > case of any GPL violation. AIUI, its highly advised but not a requirement, although I've never seen a list of core GNU projects and their copyright holders status... Perhaps someone might want to compile such a list some day... :-) -- Regards, Dave
