Stallman: Can we rescue OLPC from Windows?
[Press] Posted Apr 30, 2008 14:15 UTC (Wed) by corbet

Richard Stallman joins the discussion on the future of the OLPC project. "Some enthusiasts of the GNU/Linux system are extremely disappointed by the prospect that the XO, if it is a success, will not be a platform for the system they love. Those who have supported the OLPC project with their effort or their money may well feel betrayed. However, those concerns are dwarfed by what is at stake here: whether the XO is an influence for freedom or an influence for subjection."
