Re: [Trisquel-users] "Why the GPL doesnt focus on freedom" keynote from OSCON

Tom Preston-Warner represents the open source world. In the open source  
world, open source code exists so that proprietary software developers can  
build their proprietary software on top of collaboratively maintained  
libraries and frameworks. That's why his mantra is "open source almost  
everything." "Almost everything" is all libraries, frameworks, infrastructure  
stuff. That is why his vision of "freedom" includes the right to use the code  
in proprietary products. That is the world he comes from.
