Open Source or Free??
I do not consider myself to be a part of the Open Source Movement.
It's ok for me to work with guys who call themselves Open Source people
But appearing in public under the "Open Source" banner is not possible
for me - don't ask why - it's a matter of personal opinion.
I believe that taking a moral approach towards the entire thing is much
much better.

If the group agrees w/ your position, ie "Free" banner, would you be willing to allow promotion of Open Source software and of the "Open Source" idea by individual stall members?

What are your feelings if some sort of wording w/ equal billing could be worked out?

With all due respect,getting Linus won't help Get RMS - and u'll see some real fire works

but do we WANT fireworks? I believe, indradg has said that it is wise to refrain from bashing even MS. I agree. In any case, i would be so surprised if either showed up!
