Hello... I was writing some stuff about the number 1776 and came across the following quote from Stallman's "The GNU GPL and the American Way" essay: "The Free Software Movement was founded in 1984, but its inspiration comes from the ideals of 1776: freedom, community, and voluntary cooperation. This is what leads to free enterprise, to free speech, and to free software." --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - [...] <[email protected]><http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss>
(my 0.02: this is an excellent selection, and some good reading material for today's world... I was almost tempted to "cross post" this to rec.arts.books on Usenet...) In case anyone [has some "free" time today, and] wants to read the whole essay, it is at: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/gpl-american-way.html (maybe this is overkill, since that comes up as the first hit on a Google search for the title; but) I just thought it would be nice - and convenient - to provide the link here. -- Mike Schwartz Glendale AZ [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
