The only place we differ is that I think it is possible and productive to talk about the ethics in a way that does not interfere with the pragmatic discussion.
Actually, we probably differ less than you think. As Katrin mentioned, we've been struggling to write a more conceptual/political document about this issue for the nonprofit sector, but haven't gotten there yet. For a variety of reasons, this primer wasn't going to be the place to start that kind of discussion. But I agree that discussion needs to happen, and need not interfere with the pragmatic work on furthering the implementation of F/OSS in the np sector.
