	Interview: Richard Stallman \| KernelTrap

		Richard Stallman: The vague and cagey nature of their statements, coupled with having seen that the only specific facts they produced proved to be false, suggests they have no real case.
		Richard Stallman: We think the GPL will stand up in court, but no wise person is eager to get into a battle, even if he thinks he's well enough armed that he'd probably win.

	bsdtalk: bsdtalk132 - Richard Stallman
		The reason Richard Stallman doesn't like this is because he sees it as facilitation of non-free software, aiding in it's propagation and in general indirect promotion of it.
		Like Richard said in the interview, if one stopped doing this, he'd happily recommend it to people as a free operating system, although I find it highly unlikely that any BSD project will do, because their goals in most cases are technical goals, and not to be 100% free software.
		Stallman seems to think that free software is some basic human right, it seems that Stallman's wet dream would be an amendment to the U.S. constitution stating that all software should be free.
