OSCON, with the emphasis on ``OS''

OSCON, with the emphasis on ``OS''

I find it amusing that, aside from some footer boilerplate, the only occurrence of the word free or its derivatives/compounds was in a mention of price---``the acquisition costs (free in many cases)''. That pretty well sums up the article.

By the way, the cockroach comparison was to proprietary-software bugs (i.e., they scatter from the light), not to Free (or even open-source) Software.

Best wishes,

Max Hyre
