Free Software
Just a Few Clarifications
Submitted by Scott Dowdle on Wed, 2008-03-19 10:56. Commentary | Editorial | FOSS | Free Software | Linux | Red HatThe Objective Observer wrote an article entitled, "Penguin Suicide Bombers: The Terrorism of Open Source". The article is quite inflammatory although along the way the author tries to justify his handle. In any event, I thought it important to give the author the benefit of the doubt and to try my best to set the record straight... or my version of it anyway... in as positive a way as possible. What follows are the two, somewhat quick emails (please forgive any typos) I sent in response to the article... oh, and I'll be happy to include any responses I get back from him if any.
