Do Novell and MS execs read LWN? Should I be wearing a tie right now?

GPL 3: An Open-Source Earthquake? (CRN) Posted Jan 26, 2007 17:22 UTC (Fri) by vonbrand (subscriber, #4458) [Link] If they did demand that, I'd proudly only read LWM in a T-shirt
GPL 3: An Open-Source Earthquake? (CRN) Posted Jan 26, 2007 18:18 UTC (Fri) by bronson (subscriber, #4806) [Link] That depends, beoba. Are you producing press releases and sound bytes intended to be picked up in trade mags? Do you claim to be speaking for the entire community?
GPL 3: An Open-Source Earthquake? (CRN) Posted Jan 29, 2007 17:07 UTC (Mon) by nix (subscriber, #2304) [Link] Do you expect to turn up in a court action describing a 'file of people to be killed'?
(Mind you that was definitely not Bruce's fault, and there's no way he could have anticipated anything that crazed... ;) )
GPL 3: An Open-Source Earthquake? (CRN) Posted Jan 29, 2007 20:37 UTC (Mon) by bronson (subscriber, #4806) [Link] Hey, yeah! I'd forgotten about that. This is Bruce's comment:

I thought it was a great post. Merkey just failed th grasp the difference between "email killfile" and "file of people to kill".
GPL 3: An Open-Source Earthquake? (CRN) Posted Jan 29, 2007 22:25 UTC (Mon) by Arker (guest, #14205) [Link] I personally would say it's entirely beyond the limits of credibility to suppose that a man with his background didn't know what a killfile is. I'd bet he has one with entries going back to 1990 or so, at least. I see it as a cynical ploy based on the belief that a *judge* wouldn't be likely to understand the reference.
