A person/company who claims to be / believes in pro-open source but uses, buys, promotes(links to), sells, writes closed source software is a OSH in the increasing order. Uses being the least OSH and writing being the highest OSH.

And the award for the biggest “OSH” goes to ……..GOOGLE

Google – it is the biggest open source hypocrite on this planet.

DB2 is closed source. So Mark Shuttleworth talk about open source is just another vapouware. Mark does not believe is open source…he is just a hypocrite.

Hypocrisy (or the state of being a hypocrite) is the act of preaching a certain belief or way of life, but not, in fact, holding these same virtues oneself.

You continue to promote closed source

I suppose you’re referring to that game which is ported to GNU/Linux and another which is not Wine-compatible (and no, I don’t use Wine).

You continue to promote closed source, proprietary software

The only parts in the whole article that could be called advocacy are the quoting perhaps? The rest are just links. So, this article is advocating : Linux, the GPL , openSUSE, FLOSS, FLOSS file managers. uh, your post looks like utter nonsense , sorry.

you have the nerve to criticize Mono, Moonlight, Novell and Microsoft.

Don’t dare to bother the holy ones, all praise to Novell and Microsoft…

If you continue you’re nothing more than an hypocrite.
