I'm not sure if you caught the last few mails, but as stated, opinions posted on |
| 7 |
the Planet/Blog/Bathroom Stall are simply _opinions_ of individual entities. |
| 8 |
They are _not_ opinions of the entire organization, no matter how many opinions |
| 9 |
for or against there may be. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
As such, the following events can be expected to occur: |
| 12 |
1) Software will _not_ be removed from the tree simply because |
| 13 |
it is made by a company who just so happens to favour |
| 14 |
software patents. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
2) This pointless debate will eventually die, because if it doesn't |
| 17 |
I'm going to start quoting select excerpts from Vogon Poetry. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
3) If the Vogon Poetry fails, I'll start reading excerpts from |
| 20 |
Grunthos the Flatulent's "Ode To A Small Lump Of Green Putty |
| 21 |
I Found In My Armpit One Midsummer Morning". |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
4) If that happens to fail, which it shouldn't, I'll be forced to |
| 24 |
depths I haven't visited in quite a long time: Poetry from |
| 25 |
Paul Neil Milne Johnstone. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
5) Everyone will become happy, and help Save the Pikachus. |
