Certainly he would. The GPL takes away rights that the LGPL left to the user.

Don't be fooled. The GPL is far from Free Software. It is a communistic 
scheme to gain control of all software.

If you really understand what Free means, you will choose LGPL or BSD.

PLEASE

Could we stop this? I fear the beginning of a flame..

Please go to comp.os.gpl.advocate or something for that.


This mailing list is for Linux-Mandrake development version, ``Cooker'',
not for talks/discuss about GPL/LGPL.


Now the guy has got the pointers [www.gnu.org etc] ; let the devel of
Cooker continue, please!
