Free Software Foundation must die

Kelly McNeill writes “The problem is that the FSF has no technical perspective. Lacking perspective and not being able to appreciate or understand the current technology trends is not a crime — unless you’re the FSF. This organization has tremendous influence that translates directly into the community’s scarce resources. When a project receives the foundation’s approval, it results in much effort being poured into that project. In theory this might be a good thing, except the foundation has a knack for approving technologically unsound projects. That lack of perspective combined with influence has cost the community millions of lost man-hours. And that is inexcusable.”
