Oh my God.
It's a pleasure to read the informed and smart comments in
LWN, specially those related to the importance and impact of GPL and the
ethical proposition of the free software movement.
I think these kind of balanced analysis of "free software" vs. "open
source" --specially if RMS was mentioned even indirectly-- or BSD vs GPL
were very uncommon few years ago. The boring slogan was BSD is more
free...
Perhaps people start to realise that no social movement is sustained only
by technical reasons.
