Guest ThunderRiver Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 http://phil.freehackers.org/writings/tea-w...h-stallman.htmlFor Linux Solutions 2003, the french KDE team thought that we could take the oppurtunity to improve our relationship with RMS. He seems to accepts KDE as fully free software now. So we invited him for a tea, to show him the latest KDE and discuss. He accepted.....He asked whether KDE people were saying "Gnu/Linux" or just "Linux", and Open Source or Free Software. I told him some of us are using KDE/Gnu/Linux which pleased him as an answer.Some information about Richard Stallman at http://archive.salon.com/21st/feature/1998..._31feature.htmlHe may be legendary, but he seems to have quite a bit ego, and I don't see why people have to respect him by pleasing him all the way. But then again, it is always a good idea to keep up good relationship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agent007 Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 I understand what u mean...I too used to think like that before but not anymore. Stallman is a great guy. Sometimes it takes a certain amount of craziness to make strides and be innovative.
