> That being their choice. Oh sorry, I thought freedom was all about *my* choice. :) The way you said it, "pro-active on freedom" is good only if I choose gnome, that being the only thing on offer. Sounds like journalism in China to me (as long as I *choose* to write what the government wants, ...). Btw I don't see Ubuntu being more pro-active on freedom than anyone else. I do see that they must have a stellar deficit, but that's a different topic (although no doubt has a huge effect on its popularity). > Kubuntu's there should you want it. Now that's a different distro IMHO. And you didn't mention it in your Freedom (upper case here) plug either. But this is another thread heading for the killfile... :) Volker -- Volker Kuhlmann is list0570 with the domain in header http://volker.dnsalias.net/ Please do not CC list postings to me.
