This must not be said in the name of the GNU Project. We ask people to make GNU/Linux support their priority. More generally, we ask them to give free systems priority. We accept changes to support nonfree systems, but we don't put our effort into them. To give priority in this way to nonfree MacOS would represent a disastrous surrender. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way!
