I'm not out to convince anyone that anyone has any more rights than anyone

else. What I *was* doing was bringing that particular portion of the

conversation back to more than just baseless bashing of a particular

license.

Yes, there has been quite a bit of manure slung by *both* sides. I prefer

to stay out of that particular gutter. I personally don't care what anyone

thinks of RMS, GNU *or* FSF. I'm an ardent supporter of none of the above.

They're not my teachings or teachings to which I particularly subscribe. I

would maintain that most of the "more popular" licenses have their pros -

ultimately it depends on who or what you want to protect.
Don't paint me with the RMS/GNU brush because I refused to stand by and

watch *blatantly* false accusations be made. There is a big difference

between correcting those accusations and *supporting* the recipient of the

accusations.
