mmm - thinking out loud here.

    I'm not a programmer and would not be able to hack on the Linux kernel. However, I use free software because the code is open - knowing that I have the freedom to employ a skilled coder to do magic if I need it. I'm not sure that I want Polansi's future if its locked behind closed formats.

    I'd rather say that “ hey Polanski has a few cool ideas, lets see how we can develop free and open equivalents in realization of that vision. Sorry “ I don't buy the shades of openness argument.

    I'd rather be free

    What's for dinner - going by Wellington traditions its bound to be a treat.

    Cheers, Wayne
