Why didn't you answer my mail Rui ?
You are a troll.
Either I did and you missed it, or it wasn't the answer you'd
expect or
I found it so irrelevant it didn't even raise any bell.
You have not answered at all, you have answered to other people so
that
you could dodge my embarassing question instead of explaining why
it is
different to do the exact same thing when you are from the FSF.
I'm not from the FSF.
According to YOU, it is okay to have emacs and gcc run on a
proprietary
system as it allows more people to run free software. How is it
that it
is wrong to allow more people to run a free system by giving them
links
to proprietary software if it encourages them to keep their free
system
instead of switching to a proprietary one ?
1) ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/ isn't "links"
2) using more free software is better than not running it at all
3) incentivating usage of non-free software on free software operating
systems doesn't incentivate the creation of free software
replacements
4) FYI I think the wine project is counter-productive as it enables
running non-free software on free software operating systems, and as
such de-incentivates the creation of replacements.
4.1) but it's free software and its authors have their own
independence.
By providing emacs and gcc for windows you encourage people to run
just
a few free applications with proprietary system and (many) tools,
while
we just give people the freedom to install a proprietary
application on
top of a free system with free tools.
Look, OpenBSD is aggressive enough that people who "need" such non-
free
software likely won't even run it on OpenBSD, so what you're saying is
that to the convenience of a few people who don't care for freedom of
all users, you distribute non-free software.
Anyways, most of your emails have been so rude that in
afterthought I
shouldn't even "honour" you with a reply.
I try hard to keep my emails insult-free, saying that they are rude
for
helping you avoid embarassing questions is what makes you a troll.
Just
like your friend Stallman, you play on words and act like a victim
if a
person points
No, I am a victim and your (generically, not specifically you)
attitude
actually makes my relation with OpenBSD very frustrating.
So GTFO. Oh and lose the sig on a public mailing list. You don't like
us we don't like you. You think we rank up there with baby killers. I
will NEVER understand how that works so just FOAD and we can all be
happy.
