The anti CDDL statements are statements of bigots and as such not

Good thing that people who disagree with you are insulted, otherwise
we might get the impression that OpenSolaris is a welcoming
community... glad we got that cleared up...

I am not sure about what's your point is...

I cannot see any insult from Casper. If you dislike insults, you would
need to talk to the bigots who already attack the CDDL and CDDL based
projects.

Of course you can't see my point, you're a GPL bigot & a fascist.

See? It's not nice to insult people.

My point is just that when we're attempting a rational discourse, lowering yourself to ad hominem causes you to lose credibility, not gain it. I support the GPL, I think it's good for the authors, in as far as one's work isn't picked up & locked away in something closed source against the authors' will.

And now I'm told by Casper, someone who's supposed to represent the community (hint: I'm part of the community) that I'm a bigot for it?! That's just insane. You can disagree with me, you can say my ideas are worthless, but insulting me as a person is unacceptable. You're guilty of it, Casper's guilty of it.
