On this thread, too, I would like to request that people just stop. The history, I think, has been sufficiently rehashed. LWN seems to have become a place where people go to throw things at each other; suffice to say that's really not part of my vision of the site. Please, let's move on.

With all due respect, you opened the door when you chose to publish Mr. Perens' ill-advised press release. He's been soundly taken to task with some very informative posts, with cites to historical events that gives much needed clarity into his motives and claims.

While the tone may be somewhat harsher than is typical, this has been one of the most enlightening discussions I've seen here.

Enough, please?

Sock-puppet alert.
