- Gaelan 8y agoSounds like they were referring to GPL (and similar), not OSS in general.
- rkangel 8y agoIt is a misquote. See above. He was talking about Linux not open source, and specifically about the licence that Linux has chosen to use. It would be entirely reasonable to find it an objectionable comment nonetheless, but please find objectionable what he actually said, not some alternative version.
- socceroos 8y agoOSS was built on the GPL. Clutching at straws, that is.
