a reply from osnews against some anti-rms trolling:
When will people stop with these cheap shots? RMS is not concerned with open source, rather the four freedoms that he feels should be guaranteed to users of software. Many other licenses satisfy this definition and you will notice that there is no problem with them. The only thing “better” about the GPL from his perspective is that it is the strongest way to spread the four freedoms, as opposed to non-reciprocating licenses which can result in a user further down the distribution chain being denied those freedoms.
