I wish this abstract ideal was reflected in actual reality! But it does, the GNU project and the Free Software movement does not care who you are. > Free software as such cannot be sexist, but that you do not wish to > partake in communities where who you are is imaterial, to the point > where you do not wish to spread the message that computer rights > matters is sad. Hopefully you will reconsider, and fight for both > your right and other peoples rights to use a computer -- irrespective > of what other values or opinions you hold. It would be irresponsible to recommend someone to get involved with a group of people who may harass, bully, or verbally abuse them. Something the GNU project does not do and has never done -- we wish to include everyone, and trying to get rid of people isn't something that is beneficial to our cuase -- but just like the above -- it would be equally irresponsible, and possibly worsem to subjguate someones right. Whom you hang around with is up to you, but you cannot change the situation of a non-free program. But lets keep this list on-topic, which means discussing the development of the GNU projecs, its software, and free software in general.
