Sorry. That's not me. Don't blame me unnecessarily. Besides what is the
right thing varies depending on the context and is a subjective thing.
Ah, sorry, I took a quick look at the wiki history and saw your name there (but
didn't pin down the actual line) and from memory recalled you writing similar
stuff in
lwn.net comments.
Also, I wasn't arguing about the "right thing" part of it, but the
"provide
*ONLY* free and open source software" part.
To be clear: Fedora does not *ONLY* provide free and open source software, they
also ship non-free software which cannot be modified and for which the source
code isn't available to the general public. This isn't an accident or a bug,
but policy.
