Tell us the moonbats on newsforge are being absurd for criticizing Google for not doing a full port of picasa

They are absurd for demanding google do a full port

I have always said companies should use what license they choose and are under no obligation to opensource anything.. Can you ginve an example where I said otherwise?

Admit they are philosophical fanatics who only care about making ALL software free

Anyone who says google should have to (either legally or morally) opensource any of their products is out of line. Some of them may believe that all software should be free and thats an absurd position. Software should be licensed by the creator in any fashion they choose.

So do you have any examples of me in the past contradicting this?

Shocking, maybe you're ready to condemn software released under their moonbat GPL license? It was created with the distinct purpose of making all software free, and includes their "viral" clause designed to confiscate the code of others to meet their moonbat goals.
