O'Reilly questions free-SW regs (Register)

The Register discusses comments made by Tim O'Reilly on the politicization of software by radical fringe groups. "Where are these 'radicals' O'Reilly is concerned about? Apparently he's been frightened by a handful of teenage Slashdot trolls. Meanwhile the grownups are making sense, so far as I can tell. So what if they get a bit dramatic to make their point? Drama, like open source software (and skateboarding), is hardly a crime."
