PD is great for trivial       programs or a quick and dirty hack to show some       principles (like the jpeg decoder), but for bigger,       useful software (like an OS), GPL is much superior.       Everybody has the freedom to enslave PD software,       but GPL software is free for ever, nobody can       enslave it. So, PD software is the extreme opposite       of free software.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
