The pragmatic extremists
Rahul Sundaram takes a look at
the Guidelines for Free System Distributions. "I have been spending
the last couple of weeks talking to them about clarifying where exactly
they are drawing the lines on what constitutes a free system beyond just
software and today, FSF just again proved to be quite reasonable by publishing
the free system distribution guidelines based on the Fedora licensing
guidelines. While I just send my detailed list of feedback on these
guidelines and we are not done just yet, I hope this proves to be a useful
document to everyone involved and all hail the pragmatic extremists for
that. The world is just better off with them in it despite all their own
quirks."
