rms not "immature"rms not "immature"Posted Jul 3, 2005 0:26 UTC (Sun) by allesfresser (guest, #216)In reply to: Open source v. Free software by philips Parent article: ESR: 'We Don't Need the GPL Anymore' (O'ReillyNet)
I would hardly call Richard immature. Infuriating sometimes, yes. But not immature. Just because he's very narrowly focused on a few things which matter very much to him doesn't make him immature. On the contrary: the firmness of his commitment to freedom through 20 years of struggle makes me admire his maturity. Perhaps he isn't as good at dealing with people as some others. (I would probably be a little snippy myself if I had to deal with some of the epithets that have been thrown at him.) But social smoothness is not the sum total of maturity.
