I hear businesses championing the benefits of software freedom - in low-cost, ease of use and reliability - but without recognizing where they come from. The dynamic was obvious with Oracle's marketing of support for CentOS. If people dumped Red Hat for Oracle, where would CentOS 6 come from? AIUI, businesses understood this and shunned Oracle's distro. That dynamic applies more widely, I think :-) -- Regards, Dave _______________________________________________ Fsfe-uk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fsfe-uk
