I've even met him several times in person. And in that time, I've
watched him say and do very mean and hurtful things. Both to me, and
to others.
What can we learn from this negative
Thanks, Jim:
And it's because FreeDOS predates the term "open source" and the Open
Source Initiative that so much of our early history was so strongly
