schestowitz"I don't even know what this is meant to mean. OpenSUSE didn't forge any kind of alliance with Ubuntu. OpenSUSE didn't forge an alliance with Microsoft; Novell, the company which is behind OpenSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise, forged an agreement with Microsoft which specifically does *not* cover OpenSUSE, only the enterprise SUSE products."May 17 14:06

schestowitzWow, for an editor he doesn't keep upMay 17 14:06
schestowitz"You also fundamentally misunderstand the motivation of the FSF, as many people do. If lots of people use open source software for purely utilitarian reasons, the FSF wouldn't really consider that particularly significant; the entire point of the FSF is to *be* an idealist organization. Suggesting it should be more pragmatic is fundamentally absurd, because then it would be an entirely different organization with entirely different May 17 14:07

schestowitz"I stopped buying "Linux Format magazine" some time ago, since it made me uncertain whether it defends either authors or users of code. It doesn't have anything particularly to do with Microsoft, but probably more to do with patent absurdity and commercial interest with more wish to control media than Microsoft has.

Get over it, be thankful for May 17 14:08

schestowitz"Your whole piece is ultimately directed at FSF, but to make your point you ask all communities to conform to a let it go attitude, like everything just get solved by itself. Sure, compromise and understanding is good, if all sides of an argument applies it.
