Comments on: The GPL3 according to… http://geekz.co.uk/lovesraymond/archive/the-gpl3-according-to A comic featuring esr, rms, Linus and others Thu, 11 Mar 2010 12:06:16 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Linux Tech Daily » Stallman, GPLv3 Attack by Forbes is Ridiculous http://geekz.co.uk/lovesraymond/archive/the-gpl3-according-to/comment-page-1#comment-4368 Linux Tech Daily » Stallman, GPLv3 Attack by Forbes is Ridiculous Wed, 25 Oct 2006 13:37:01 +0000 http://geekz.co.uk/lovesraymond/?p=43#comment-4368 [...] Richard Stallman, for the uninitiated, is the creator of Emacs—a text editor and lifelong enemy of Vi. He also created the GNU C Compiler and GNU C Debugger. He co-founded the GNU Project and the Free Software Foundation (FSF). He was the lead author of the GNU General Public License (GPL), the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL). In other words, a big shot in Open Source Software. Scratch that, Free Software as he prefers it to be called. Known by the initials rms, he is respected, loved by the ladies and sometimes called a pain in the ass. I use Free Software daily, and believe most of it would not be possible without him. He is a vital figure. Every movement needs someone viewed as an extremist. It makes moderate gains possible. He asks for a full arm, maybe we get a hand. [...] [...] Richard Stallman, for the uninitiated, is the creator of Emacs—a text editor and lifelong enemy of Vi.

I mean, I have done that myself.... In my former post:

Ei — spanish spelling
Hey — english spelling

I wanted to add some insigthful comment, but then I noticed that you can’t make an insigthful comment from a one-pun web-comic :)
