    - What is the best way to live in the mixed economy until the
    revolution succeeds?

That is a very broad question, so broad I have no idea how to respond
to it.  (I don't see any specific connection with Aquamacs.)

I can only say that thousands of free software developers
are alive today, and I don't think free software development
is fatal for many of them.

    - The copyright problem also seems to block Gnu from absorbing, or
    even partrnering with, other fully free software (with no question of
    any nonfree software).

I am not sure what you have in mind when you say "partnering with",
but I tend to think this is not a real problem in practice.
