I am one of those guys who don't really overstand the implications of this debate and who noticed the problem only because it seemed to behold the potential of a threat to the unity within the Linux community. It may sound off the rocker like a lot of stuff i write, but every time i find myself reading a thread about this issue, there is a little Gandhi guy voice in me quoting something like:
"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you winn".
And this systemDebate, in conjunction with the fact that GNU/Linux is on the stage of big games today. it makes me wonder if freedom software is exiting laugh-a-you -phase
If so, I hope Freedom Software creators and users will be able to launch fight-at-us -back, without kick/banning eachothers
