GPL conference

I’m at the GPLv3 Conference at IIMB and it sucks.

People missed the whole point of the conference. The conference is about what-to-have and what-not-to-have in the next version of GPL. However, the last 2 days, people have been just asking “How do I run xxx in linux” to “What do you think about M$”.

Currently I’m in the DRM panel and someone asks RMS “Why free software” and he is going on and on about how he was in MIT and how he lost freedom.. the usual stuff. Somehow he/she does not get boo’ed while someone got boo’ed coz he said he used proprietary software coz he could not find a free-software alternative. Ofcourse not to mention RMS’s abuses on people coz he cannot understand the Indian english accent.

Just remembered why I cannot stand FSF and RMS.

    Wanna know the secret to being a superlover? http://scottishlists.com/generic_viagra.html – Viagra.
    A lot of people don’t realize that young people are using Viagra too for the extra advantage in bed.

    What do you think about this trend?
