From LinuxPlanet: “Sometimes the Linux community is too cute by half. This manifests itself in various ways. One
is when we rise in righteous indignation anytime someone has the temerity to develop and
actually sell software. Another is the righteous indignation expressed this week when a Microsoft droid came out with
the mostly ridiculous notion that free and open-source software somehow stifle innovation,
and maybe ought to be prohibited. All over the place came the angry denunciations. The free
and open-source communities were beside themselves.”
