Since it is free software, we can use it when it is useful. On occasions when we can use a GNU package or a non-GNU package, we should choose the GNU package, out of loyalty. On occasions when we can use a GPL'd package (version N or later) or a free package with some other license we should choose former package, out of loyalty. But that's only about choosing _between_ free programs. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation (gnu.org, fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (internethalloffame.org) Skype: No way!
