Just calling something like that in an official place doesn't make your more philosophical or not. I've seen more than once that people talk about Debian/Linux and Debian/Hurd while they weren't talking about linux-image-*_i386.deb and hurd_*_i386.deb. Just calling something free software doesn't mean you understand it. Jeroen Dekkers -- Jabber ID: jdekkers@jabber.org IRC ID: jeroen@openprojects GNU supporter - http://www.gnu.org
