Every group has its fringe radicals.

Like seemingly every post, you again lie in defense of Stallman, since it's already been confirmed in this thread several times that 80% of all open source software uses his license. I'd hardly call that a fringe, but of course I have a functioning brain.

I don't defend RMS--and you know it.

As I've said, supporting OSS doesn't equate to agreeing with RMS. I support OSS and believe that RMS doesn't speak for me.

I'm saying he wrote the second version of GPL before he lost his marbles--fifteen years ago. Plus, the third version is so political and full of rhetoric (at least as it currently stands) that it's sickening.

There is a difference. You, with all due respect sir, are just too dense to understand.
