Proprietary software--banned in Boston? (News.com)Proprietary software--banned in Boston? (News.com)Posted Oct 1, 2003 12:51 UTC (Wed) by zooko (subscriber, #2589)Parent article: Proprietary software--banned in Boston? (News.com) I'm sure that CAGW's distaste for Open Source software isn't because they think that it is expensive, but they think that it is communist. I'm not kidding. Someone needs to tell them that a huge fraction of the creators and users of Open Source software are businessmen and economic libertarians like themselves. Regards, Zooko

Proprietary software--banned in Boston? (News.com) Posted Oct 2, 2003 0:21 UTC (Thu) by coriordan (guest, #7544) [Link] The problem with past communist regimes has been central control (dictators).It's worth pointing out that Free Software does not have a dictator. It has thousands of part owners and every one of them has agreed to give it's users all the permissions they need. > Someone needs to tell them... When no one else steps up to the plate, "Someone" becomes you. Ciaran O'Riordan
