And it's the idea that groups *should* go out of their way to promote FOSS to those not interested in doing so is the controversy. It's the same situation as telling LUGs that they should go around promoting FOSS to disabled people as if you were telling them that they should go around badgering Windows users out of using Windows. Trying to force something down anybody's throat isn't appreciated. > What is wrong with that if we really feel that FOSS has unique value? Nothing. If you want to promote it, go ahead and do so. But don't go around insisting that others should as well. They can do that if they want to. -- (Currently running FC4, occasionally trying FC5.)
