I don't think the FSF is prepared to change their licensing practise no matter how eloquent statements we can draft here. IIRC, a couple of iterations back we had a subthread on d-l where Stallman himself participated. He did not seem to attach any particular weight by our objections. > In my very humble opinion, Debian should try giving them that before > taking (what would appear to be) the more hostile actions suggested > by you. The three initial of Branden's proposed actions do not seem to be hostile. They say that we make up our mind and draft a self-contained descriptions of why we think the invariant-section stuff (etc.) is evil. Surely that is a prerequisite for doing *anything* else than bitch about the problem internally on debian-legal. -- Henning Makholm "So? We're adaptable. We'll *switch missions*!"
