Brett, personally, let them do that, they have every freedom and right in
the US to do what they want as far as licensing issues are concerned. And
I have every freedom in the US to support
FreeBSD and not attack anyone else's projects. Deal with it. I don;t like
Stallman, I don;t like the FSF's resemblance to Communism, but I also
respect everyone's right to license thier software how *they* want to
license it.
Maybe we should educate people on the merits of the BSD style license than
try to pound into their heads the evils of the GPL.
-Pat
