Re: hey grarpamp, got a quote from your friend perry metzeer.
Supposed quotes should be linked, else perhaps viewed as troll manure. Some lists have been shown to be run by hypocrites. Others have been shown to be abused by assholes and etc. Many more are run in the ether, perhaps some even by residents here. Keep digging, soon you will reach Russia or some other fucked up land.

Asking on list would probably yield some of what you seek.

Its like saying "I'm not in favor of banning guns -- but I want victims to be able to sue the gun manufacturers for negligence". Dworkin is a fascist in feminist clothing -- for all intents and purposes she believes that any act of heterosexual sex is on some level rape. She's nuts. > Tired of white het male computer geeks talking nonsense about anyone > who threatens their place in the power structure, This white male het computer geek marches in the Gay Pride Parade every year. (Well, not this year -- I was sick. Mea culpa.) He also thinks that Andrea Dworkin is about as anti-censorship as Rev. Wildmon. I don't give a shit about the power structure -- I just think that anyone telling me what I can and cannot see, what I can and cannot write, and what I can and cannot sell, is my enemy.

There is at least some food for thought in comparison to the GNU project and the Linux kernel. 20 years ago it was of course “why would programmers give away their "intellectual property"?” which many at the time found a genuinely perplexing question - unfathomable if you will. Today, that story has just slightly/subtly, changed - Linux Everywhere and free/ libre/ open source software is basically a pre-requisite for any new venture or project. But why? - Why, as a programmer, would you give up your sovereignty/ right to make use of your own work in the future (either with another company, or in your own projects)? - Why would a company not take advantage of the $billions worth of free software "off the shelf" (and why would you spend millions reinventing all that NIH stuff)? - Why would you risk a proprietary startup when you know that the first guy to launch a FLOSS equivalent will in relatively short order (if you project/product is successful) overtake you in technical capability, on a relentless march? - If Microsoft couldn't successfully hold out against the FLOSS tide, what makes you think your puny thing will be able to? … and many similar besides.
