But
at the same time, I think it's important to note that by supporting
the idea of improving Emacs on *all* platforms, more students are
consequently encouraged to apply to work on GNU projects (which is
arguably beneficial with regards to the number of spots GNU is
allotted during the course of the program).
Even if that's true, it counts for little when set against our
principal mission: to teach people that proprietary software is unjust.
It would be foolish and self defeating to blatantly ignore our ethical
principles just to attract more developers.
