"If there were enough people working on both projects, I would still suggest
for Trisquel to be based on Debian."
Of course we can suggest this, but in the end trisquel is kind of quidams
hobby project afaik and he decides how he want to spend his free time.
Our decision is whether we leave trisquel or not.
By the way:
it might frighten you a bit (it frightens me also) but I thought very deeply
about the whole "illegal sharing" discussion and I have to admit that I can't
consider it to be ethical anymore.
I realised this when I thought of purchase of a cd being connected to a kind
of "promise" not to copy it and give it to your friend, just like you promise
this when buying proprietary software.
Once you did this, you can find yourself in the same moral dillema. Should I
betray my friend or break my promise?
Though I think such a licence is unjust, but breaking my promise isn't good
anyway.
The only solution is to refuse stuff under such a licence completely and
limit myself to the usage of creative commons, consumer respecting media.
I don't think anyone is interested in this discussion anymore, but
nevertheless I might perhaps start a thread in the troll hole later on where
I explain this ideas, just in case someone is interested.
BUT sorry, I thought about the name discussion also, and though I think it's
unethical now, I still it is not sensible to use the word "piracy". But I
will write about it in another thread and think the normal trisquel forum is
not the right place for this.
