commercial programs on debian

[Michel Vergues]

Hi,

I'm agree with wour point of view. There is a lot of developpement to do on 
free software. but remember licences are for close market and to have captive 
user due to the data format, driver, no interoperative system
this is the goal for commercial.

Remember free will never tell that any think to do ;)

With commercial the future may be :
each time you want to do code you may paid a licence.
If you dont paid it a crime.
and you must to do what the software want (new slave)

That's right debian is not perfect and we have some problem. 
There is great amelioration last years, and I hope it will continu.

all people can contribute

regards
Michel 

 

Hi again
  Thank you Goswin and Alexander for nice ideas. I will do something into 
these directions.
  About the idea below. Debian and more or less Linux has now been banned 
from my institution even if I have been able to solve a lot of peoples 
problems with it. 
  Looking at a guy copying plots directly from some commercial program into 
Word on a Windows computer, 10 to 100 times faster than I can do with gnuplot 
makes me wonder if I am on the right track. The programs that I have 
mentioned need to work on Debian and they need to work better with open 
source programs if I will be able to continue use Debian or even Linux for 
the desktop applications. I could switch to Windows, get a perfect GUI and 
run the calculations on a Linux backend as most people do. It might save me 
time.



Regards
Gudjon
