I strongly differ. What do you mean by "Everyone". is that you , or me or some one else.. buddy you just cant make this kind of irresponsible comment. sorry if i am rude.
So buddy lets try to know the truth... there is no harm in it.
I know my posts can be long , but is it that hard to read the whole sentence before coming to conclusions . Read the Whole DAMN thing is all i got to say .

" i think free software name would confuse a lot ,while everyone knows open source is for linux , gnu and others ."
Note the FREE SOFTWARE NAME as in threads name would confuse a lot , while everyone knows open source NAME is for linux , gnu and others . Man do i have to spell out everything . READ THE WHOLE SENTENCE . its called a sentence koz all the words are related . Get It !!!

U keep the threads name as FREE SOFTWARE , u think people might think of linux first ? or is OPEN SOURCE linked more towards linux /gnu and stuff . and by everyone i didnt mean my neighbours and my ex girlfriends , I meant people browsing digit forums , who else is gonna read this forum and use the forum ???? or r u planning to publish the forum in leading newspapers . u want me to list out the members of the forum by their niks . One thing i hate abt this linux / open source movement is people bashing others around on technicality . heck some people just dont wanna know abt the gpl and gnu movement and just wanna use a damn OS .

One of the first interviews RMS gave to LFY , he said he wanted the mags name changed to GNU or GNU / Linux . I read abt it a bit more and now know why he wanted that change . Similarly , people link the NAME open source to linux gnu and STUFF ( i added this so that there wont be a cry from freebsd users ) . God some people will do anything in life . For people wanting to uphold truth , a lot of them sure find an easy , kozy spot online or in forums to speak the truth , but in real life , god knows how they behave . sometimes feel SOME ( NOTICE "SOME" b4 replying ) linux CORE advocates are some sorta cult mentality u know with RMS as ur GOD lol HAIL RMS !!!

anyways . Hope i am clear on this . or should i go on .
