Perhaps the word was inappropriate. I quote from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zealot";"Zealotry denotes zeal in excess, referring to cases where activism and ambition in relation to an ideology have become excessive to the point of being harmful to others, oneself, and one's own cause. A zealous person is called a zealot."
And this was my opinion: "the idealogy of some people is in my opinion have become excessive to the point of being harmful to free software". I think that I have the right of saying that without being accused of insulting people.
