The fact that different people mean different things when they say "software" was enough for us to stop using the word "software" where the distinction was important. The logical follow-on is that we should either get people to agree on what "free software" means or stop using the phrase "free software" where the distinction is important. -- Matthew Garrett | [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
