Sure, some argue that only anarchy is real freedom. But this is clearly not the kind of freedom advocated by GNU philosophy. GNU explicitely does *not* support the "freedom" to distribute non-free software. The GCC case is a strategic compromise. Such compromises need to be weighted very cautiously, and DRM mechanisms clearly fall a long way outside any acceptable comprimise. -antrik- _______________________________________________ L4-hurd mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/l4-hurd
