Joe Brockmeier on RMS

[divine_assass1n]

It's no secret that RMS and Steve Jobs held firmly opposed views when it comes to software freedom. I didn't expect Stallman to hold a vigil at an Apple store for Jobs, or even to say much of anything at all. But his ill-considered response does nothing for the cause of free software, and actually does a lot of damage

Абсолютно согласен. А под следующими цитатами просто готв подписаться:

"This is, unfortunately, typical of Stallman - and exactly why the self-appointed leader of the free software movement is the last person who should be spokesperson for anything."

"he does the cause of free software far more harm than good these days. He may appeal to the converted, but he is absolutely the wrong person to relate to the majority of users."

Думаю, в средневековой Испании, Столлман был бы иезуитом и жег бы людей за недостаточную чистоту поведения и помыслов.
