Oh God!

What next? Anyone called Dick or Pecker will be asked to change his
name/handle or refrain from posting here?

Seriously, this type of prudishness reminds /me of the Victorian Age in
England, when they used to call the male hen as rooster, because the more
familiar term cock had other meanings!

This type of attitude only shows that if there's indeed something
objectionable, it is only in the mind of Ms. Anjali here and not in the name
of Linux Lingam! /me thinks such posters in an on-topic thread should be
deemed as trolls and be dealt with accordingly!

<ontopic>

Hardcore Free software enthusiasts often look at Microsoft as the biggest
threat to Software Freedom, but news like these makes /me feel that Oracle
is striving real hard to grab that coveted place!

/me begins to wonder about the future of products like Virtualbox and
OO.org.
