"BadVista.org": FSF launches campaign against Microsoft Vista
This is a terrible move, and is likely to turn into a PR disaster for the FSF, and free software in general.
Until now, the free software world has been seen as being supportive of its own products, providing platforms and visibility, and we have been appreciated for it.
But now it is going competitive - product against product - under the very thin and non-credible guise of public awareness. This won't fly, and I think it is going to make life extremely difficult for everyone, while actually placing MS and Vista in a perceived (and comfortable) underdog situation.
Bah!
