My only quibble is that since RMS has wrapped himself and this issue in the flag of the GPL and "the [foundation] for which it stands", in terms of the instant controversy, and e.g. conflicts with OpenBSD, they are indivisible. But I hope I've made it very clear that I indeed view this solely as a stewardship issue that could be true under any FOSS licence, and I repeat that the GPL is a tolerable licence for something like the GCC (well, it might doom serious Ada to the proprietary world, but, eh).
