I arrived late to this discussion, but since I'm getting known for being
radically opposed to the GPL, and therefore Linux in general, I must say some
words;
If Linux is kicking, well ...it's not Jordan's fault. We all know FreeBSD is
for people with extremely good taste, if people want to use Linux it's their
problem, I really don't care. Jordan's work has been GREAT.
Pedro.
