I had never heard of EEE, so thank you for mentioning it. Wow! it just keeps
amazing me more and more how people can patronize MS given how scummy they
are! My guess is that they aren't aware of many of these things. Our number
one goal should be raising awareness. That is probably why rms tirelessly
travels the world giving speeches.
Ubuntu, however, should know better. At best there is this idealistic
delusion that if they only keep compromising and bowing at the feet of
business, things will get better. At worst, this fills their selfish pockets
to the detriment of everybody else.
If we weren't so tied to ubuntu we could call for a boycott of ubuntu--who
knows, maybe the FSF will. I swear, if some MS access button or some other
bullsh*t is added to Trisquel I'll give up computing!
We need to start breaking away from ubuntu and setting up our own
repositories and so on. Since Trisquel is all free software there is no
legal impediment. I'm guessing it is a man-hour issue. Perhaps the simplest
solution is inheriting directly from Debian. Thoughts?
