RMS Linux users may want to use Guido (100% GPL)
Web browsers can indeed be 100% GPL>.. my team of developers is working on one as we speak.. and when we have something ready to show, we'll turn it over to the open source community to see what we can do to make Guido even better.

GUI design philosophy
There is significant fragmentation in the Linux community, but that is not a bad thing... People have different opinions, whims, and design philosophies... It's all a part of the Linux culture and not something that should be looked at with a negative spin.

Re:Smart move for Red Hat... Great news for OSS/GP
I forgot to add one thing: I personally (this is my own politics at hand) am developing a text-based KDE uninstall utility called "Special K"... it will completely remove KDE core files, Qt files, and all the rest of the crap that is KDE... Special-K will be available on the Gnuidea website soon... Keep an eye out for it!
Later gaters,

Smart move for Red Hat... Great news for OSS/GPL!!Red Hat, you've really done a wonderful deed here with helping support Free Software, especially GNU and GPL software... I prefer 100% GPL for my Open Source Software, and I'm happy to see that RMS Linux will *NOT* include KDE, Qt, or Netscape... KDE is crap anyway... If you want my detailed explanation of why KDE sucks, do a search for "Cheung" on Linux.com...
By the way, my development team here at Gnuidea Software is building a 100% Open Source, GPL Browser for Linux. We will give the browser away for free by FTP or website download, but will also produce a box set to be sold in stores, which will, like Red Hat's box set, include documenation, toll-free phone support access numbers, groovy stickers, free t-shirt coupons, a CD-ROM including Guido, other Gnuidea software like Waimea, Firecracker and GUM/GAB, as well as good security tools that are 100% GPL (i.e. Open Source). Like Red Hat, I will donate $1 for every box sold to the GNU/FSF for all their hard work over the years.
Here's a tentative listing of our 100% Open Source product line: (all are in design and/or early development stages)
Guido: Gnome Universal Internet Domain Observatory
Firecracker: Guido-based firewall testing utility
Waimea: stream cipher encryption algorithm
GUM/GAB: Gnome Universal Mailbox/Address Book
Ticker: Gnome panel ticker (e.g. auto-query for symbol:RHAT)
Once we have hard-coded the design, we will make the source code and binaries available on the Gnuidea website, temporarily located on my desktop plugged into the UCSC network:
