Seriously? Should I only be able to read Wikipedia articles in Firefox
and not Internet Explorer? That's nuts! It's the content that's
important - the wikipedia text, the OSM data. If gcc could only be
used to compile GPL software I'll bet it would be far less well
developed, if wikipedia could only be seen on Linux fewer people would
write it, and if OSM could only be used with free software then we'd
be staring at giant blank maps.

This is written on my Ubuntu laptop, of course.

Cheers,
Andy
