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 a statement of fact (or at least MollyC has never denied that she is the same MollyC who words for Waggener Edstrom Worldwide)."

LOL
I'm sorry, I must've missed earlier posts where you were accusing me of being "Molly Cielsinski" (whatever). Anyway, see my above post regarding this matter.
I find it hilarious that you actually tried to find out who I am. I mean, it never even occurred to me to find out who "Archie Steel" might be. I just know that he's someone I enjoy arguing with. Someone with whom I enjoy the give and take of debate (despite your penchant to come at me on a personal level at times). ;) I enjoy debating with you. But I don't know, it seems that you may be obsessed with me. ;)

Anyway, please do see my previous post (both the beginning and the "Edit:" part I added at the end.)

Again, I accept your statement that you are not that MollyC. There was only one way to find out, and that was confronting you about it. Sorry you missed it in the previous threads.

Anyway, don't construe this as anything personal against you - and it's not too hard to find out who I am, there aren't that many Archie Steels around...

One of the nice things about this site... and one of the things that makes me prefer it to Linux-only sites, is the fact that we can have larger scoped disagreements, and get over it.

Again. Thank you Molly. It was, perhaps, unfair of me to push the matter as I did.
