- macspoofing 6y agoI get the 'idea'. There are more things to fund then there are funding dollars available ... by many orders of magnitude, so you have to make decisions. One of those decisions is whether or not to pay for a certain numbers of b52 bombers. Another, completely separate decision, is whether to fund a very specific niche open source project. Linking those two is disingenuous. If you want funding for LibreOffice, make the case to your representative. Make the case to others so they make the case to your representative.
- buzzerbetrayed 6y agoBut why is LibreOffice so special? Surely there are thousands of other projects that would also love 1% of the b52 bomber budget.
- ihattendorf 6y agoSure, but it could also take other projects to unparalleled places. Why does LibreOffice deserve that money over other projects?
