I guess a bug with the wp plugin, sorry about that. > As you say i may be the 'militant Free software activist' and i am > proud to be one. I can see that. It also appears to me that you guys would go to any extend (even breaking the law) as the Novell incident clearly proved. > Considering the fact that people like you lack the fire in you to > fight for your own freedoms. Your freedom need not be mine. Who are you decide what I consider as "freedom"?. To me freedom is not something absolute. We never will have absolute freedom, it is only an illusion. > You say that we have to trust peoplehttp://www.lafkon.net/tc/ > I am not sure that my gmail will be send to Uganda and i am looking > for an alternative.

What if I prefer to pay and buy a proprietary system from a well known software vendor? What if I prefer that over the hassle of all these source/compile nonsense (I am talking from an end user perspective). Does that make me a bad person? What nonsense! The same can be said of almost everything that we use. Promote free software, but start bad mouthing others as if you are the saints. > Because they try to restrict the freedom of users through software > patents. Simple. The laws of the land are made by people right? India is a democracy, why can't we have a law banning software patents? What can Microsoft do? As I said earlier *software patents are evil*, no question about it. > And about why you are not bothered anymore to answer to my comments. I > think its because you dont have apt answers to my questions. Sorry, I have "attention deficit disorder". I got bored. Instead of preaching and bad mouthing others, I want to know constructive real work you guys have done on the free software. It is easy to talk and start flame wars, but can you create a single solid free software product? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ "Freedom is the only law".
