The links wre in no way meant to be complete...just a sample so to pull one up
and dismiss is sort of misses the point.
No, I think you're missing my point ;-)
Which is that the effective attack being mounted by M$ and allies is not a
general ideological one, but a very carefully targetted one aimed at a
number of individual points: licenses to be used by universities is one;
software to be used by government departments is another. A counter which
concentrates only on creating a universally valid ideology is going to
lose all the battles before it gets remotely close to winning the war.
