I agree with virtually all you wrote, apart from the use of the word "Most". There was (on another list earlier in the year) quite a long discussion about this - I don't remember the details, but I do remember that the average Linux distribution is only about 17% FSF code these days. I also run virtual-rms from time to time, and my server is 100% Free software... my desktop isn't (OpenOffice being the biggest non-free app.) Mark -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
