Which would include a copy of GNU/Linux and/or Firefox running on a public library computer. It is not "perfectly reasonable" for anybody but yourself to demand that the library will then consequently be forced to hand out copies of the source code on demand. Not even the FSF has such a contorted view of things. > Please David, learn to read instead of resorting to Terkhovian > methods. Pointing out that your views are not shared by anybody else is hardly "Terkhovian". -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
