Denial is a river in Egypt.

I'm talking about your yenta-like posting of circular arguments, manifested through contradictory posts and worthless links.

I'm not talking about RMS--but here's my two cents' worth. AFAIC, he's a raving, nutty tool. His v.2 license isn't that political. IIRC, it was written in 1991--before he completely lost it and became the dirty anti-capitalist. Therefore, the GPL v.2 license says nothing about OSS being anti-capitalist.

My rather limited knowledge of GPL v.3 is that the current draft is anti-capitalist fringe rhetoric. IMO, it'll be shunned by much of the OSS community--making it worthless except for a few programmers.

Then why are you fighting with me for speaking out against him and his obvious radicals? He is the face of open source, and it's finally been admitted on this thread that as much as 80 percent of all open source software uses his licences. Don't waste your breath claiming none of that matters.
