Re: Debian GNU/w32, may ready to be started?



Please consider that RMS created the LGPL specificly to allow glibc to be
installed on, and used by, non-free OS's like Sun. The whole purpose was
to allow more free software to be run on these machines.

This implies that RMS _is_ in favor of having free software run on a
non-free OS. (Although he is perfectly able to act in an inconsistant
fashion.)

If I understand, this port allows most/all Debian software to be run on an
M$ OS. This sounds like just what the Doctor ordered ;-)

Luck,

Dwarf
