Yeah sure. The lack of a sane copyright regulation is the fault of Stallman because of arguing for freedom, not the fault of the billions of dollars poured into lobbyism in order to not make it so. At any rate, Stallman's work has contributed more to Linux audio being a thing than Microsoft's work has, so picking Microsoft as your champion on this list seems more out of whack with sanity than picking Stallman, and that is saying something. I definitely would want to see Stallman wrong more often: his predictions are so bleak. But reality does not do me that favor all that often. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
