If you don't like personal, blog-style reporting, you might want to skip this item. A few days ago, during a speech at Software Freedom Day in Boston, Richard Stallman has, at least in my book, crossed a line that I thought he would never cross.

Still, as many posters already made clear, Icaza was a hard worker. Which must mean two things:
1. He can't be a traitor. Not now, not ever. No matter what he does. No matter how many enemy Gates and rings he kisses.
2. Any "politician" or people that use other people's hard work for either some political agenda or personal credit should STFU. (Torvalds is an exception, as he was a hard worker in the past.)

If you work for one "side" then start working for the "other side", that pretty much is the definition of treason, and the harder you work (for either side), the more egregious the act of treason appears to those whom you have "betrayed".

I think the day RMS goes away people will be saying how great RMS was and how lucky we been to have him... and maybe it will be too late because corporate people will be all upon us and will start to take our freedom away if we don't do something.
I'm with RMS on this one...
