GNU, GPL, Open Source Eric S. Raymond writes on his blog: "There's been a lot of debate in the community about how OSI should properly handle Microsoft's planned submission of some of its licenses for OSD certification. That debate has been been going on within OSI, too. OSI's official position, from the beginning, which I helped formulate and have expressed to any number of reporters and analysts, is that OSI will treat any licenses submitted to Microsoft strictly on their merits, without fear or favor. That remains OSI's position. But I find that my resolve is being sorely tested."

It's worth noting that ESR is a genocidal maniac who, via his blog and other publications, actively advocates the extermination of non-whites and non-Christians.

He's probably not the right man to be defining what constitutes equal treatment.

But I suppose that's par for the course when it comes to "free" software zealots. Either you're one of them or you're not worthy of life.
