You must be confusing this group with some other group. Free software isn't a economic model. The GPL is a copyright license, that protects users freedom to run, study, improve and distribute software, and has nothing to do with Communism/Capitalism, free software and any kind of freedom can happily coexist with both those models, which ever you wish to prefer.

"I'm the general counsel of the Free Software Foundation, and I'm trying to report on the revolution which is destroying intellectual property. Of which I am entirely in favour." http://ciaran.compsoc.com/texts/eben-moglen-dmca-and-you.html How the hell do you get "can happily coexist" and "destroying intellectual property" to logically fit together?

It's an economic model that hopes to destroy capitalistic notions of intellectual property. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
