Can someone from the FSF comment on whether this is relevant or not for this list? This topic generates a lot of discussion but (I would bet money) not any actual activism opportunities for the FSF or local LibrePlanet groups. Personally, I got sick of this topic years ago on the p2p-research mailing list. It was one of the many factors that lead to the signal:noise ratio on that list tipping into the negative. I seem to remember John Sullivan saying it was more appropriate for gnu-misc-discuss, but I could be misremembering. -- Sent from Ubuntu
