Seeing as private capital and ownership is the way of the world then I suppose this is how proprietary products become standards.  Free Software is not the be all and end all but it's definitely a step in the right direction.  Many developing countries, not to mention the OLPC project could not be where they are now without Free Software.

Hmm, I wonder why IceDove isn't wrapping your message.  Oh well, I'm too
lazy today to do it.

I agree with you on this account.  I owe a debt of gratitude to all of
the people who have endeavored to produce free software, and applaud
their efforts.  I just wish that more people could/would see the light.

I imagine in this case I am preaching to the choir.
