Eben recently had his one day conference the videos of which are here: https://softwarefreedom.org/events/2017/conference/video/ https://softwarefreedom.org/events/2017/conference/video/ If you look at his closing remarks (the last video) he mentions that he mentions being less combative as a strategy to reach more people. I suspect this comes down to less being the same side than having different tactics.
