I am suspicious of both sides. Libreboot's team talks about "transgender discrimination" of employees at GNU, without actually explaining what went on over at GNU that was anything serious, or anything "transgender" related. The Libreboot side claims some people got fired just for being transgender. I could not see anything more than just that claim, and a list of employees who were "discriminated" against. However, all the GNU side responses, as cult-ish as they are, are somewhat valid if Leah and co have set the copyright to the FSF, in which case there is no easy way out other than a fork. Leah and co have to be careful, because have a look at this: http://www.guidestar.org/FinDocuments/2007/412/165/2007-412165986-036368a0-9.pdf As of writing this message, we are in the 2010's, where anyone and everyone uses "(trans)gender discrimination" or "racial discrimination" to avoid accountability. A little suspicion, cynicism, and scepticism could reduce potential embarrassment.
