of course your point relies upon presumptive guilt...which as I
understand it is part and parcel of a Catholic upbringing but clearly at
odds with the expectations of open source software users.


Wow dude. I'm no Catholic...but how did we get to Religion?

Red Hat assures us that this presumptive guilt is not our (open source
software users) concern...

So unless/until Microsoft or by proxy, Novell, wants to assert some
claim, it is simply spreading FUD to suggest otherwise.
