There are many in the FSF that view the aims of "open source" as opposite to Free Software. FSF aims for the elimination of all proprietary software. Microsoft and IBM support open source and the resignation of the FSF board.
Open Source has basically won. No one really gets what Free Software is anymore.
- orra 6y agoThat's not the issue here. FSFE have condemned the FSF, for example.
- thinkingemote 6y agoBitwise's comment says that it's the open source community which is being harmed. FSF is Free Software - the FSF don't view the Open Source community as their support base. But open source broadly views free software as part of themselves.
