opponents, competition? Lars, you just don't get it. btw, my main beef with rms is that when the ath5k thing went down, I asked rms in personal email to make a generic statement about respecting copyrights. not comdemn or "choose sides", just say something along the lines of "despite differences in beliefs of freedom, the most important thing for all of free software is respect for copyright and chosen licensing." and he thought that might be a good idea. then he suddenly decided, because OpenBSD was involved, that he would not make such a statement. he went on to say that he could care less if OpenBSD developers "drop dead". I was trying to get rms to be a hero, actually. I thought building flame war was bad for everyone. but he refused, because he is personally prejudice against OpenBSD. plain and simple. don't know about you, but imo, any self proclaimed defender of freedom, with such prejudice, is not at all a defender of freedom, but some one abusing the idea freedom for personal gain. one of the most vile types of people, imo. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org
