Can anyone please provide context on this? Why did RMS feel the need to personally step in and weigh in on the Minsky allegations? Was it indeed just carelessness on his behalf, as many are speculating? Or were his comments part of another conversation inside the FSF that has not been made public?
I've read the email chain that's been circulated but it does not go back far enough. It's the "comments about comments" discussion.

- tboyd47 7y agoI'm re-reading it now. Maybe I'm just not able to follow the text-based email chain format, but it doesn't seem to include RMS's original email with his comments except quoted as part of another email, which leads me to think that part of the conversation is being covered up. Maybe I'm reading too much into it.
