Hi Jon. First of all, good luck to you and to RMS for the interview. I would like you to ask him some questions, to get the conversation going:
- Patents, software patents, and the situation in EU. Are they gone for a few years ? You may also want him to elaborate on the usefulness and damaging effects of them patents. - Regarding Linux and Oss, what is his opinion on some distros that make it difficult to obtain their distro, and or make it available on a money or registration basis only? OK those are 2 questions. I hope you will get more from the group.
