  3. Oh Darl, when will you ever learn? by __aavhli5779 · · Score: 5, Interesting · on Darl Goes to Harvard
    Erica's question (the second to last, as McBride claimed "that girl really wants to ask a question") was "You've said you like the GPL, that you distribute GPL products, and that people should be able to contribute however they want. Why then did you claim in December that you believe the GPL violates the constitution, and US patent and trademark law?"

    McBride's response was essentially "look, over there, something shiny! next question!"


    Seems like the MIT students did a nice job putting him on the spot, but it's obvious that ol' Darl is pretty adept at deflecting any criticism or challenging questions and changing the subject when he finds the current one uncomfortable.

    What will it take to get him to address all the contradictory statements and lies that he and his cohorts seem to spout at every opportunity?

    Perhaps it's time to try to get that court date pushed up :)
  4. Sarcasm? by GQuon · · Score: 1 · on Top 10 Linus Quotes on SCO

    However he certainly doesn't have the corporate image to upkeep like Gates, Ballmer, McBride, whoever.

    You're being sarcastic, right?
    Some corporate image.

    But you're right that those guys are very "corporate". Their antics are for money. Linus is making the world a little better.

  5. WLTSIM comments on press coverage by Demona · · Score: 5, Insightful · on IBM Adds SCO Counterclaim Charging Copyright Infringement
    From We Love the SCO Information Minister:

    "I think this [website] comes from a few individuals in the open-source community, which tends to paint a bad picture of the community as a whole. I think most in the open-source community are good, hard-working developers that want to create some great things. It's unfortunate that a few bad apples spoil the image of the whole group." - Blake Stowell, September 25 2003

    Thanks to SearchEnterpriseLinux for their coverage, but we must disagree with the statement that our site "excerpts several comments SCO officials have allegedly made about Linux during the past year or so." None of these comments are "allegedly" -- they're 100% verifiable fact, statements made in front of God and everyone...which is the point of providing links, so the reader can check the full original context. Of greater significance is the assumption that our creation must be motivated by anger; since we don't know Darl personally, our feelings could best be described as "affection". Like Saeed al-Sahaf, McBride proves that "truth is stranger than fiction because fiction has to make sense." With his rampant contradictions and defiance of all logic, he provides us with the finest gift of all -- the gift of laughter. Rather than provide needless attempts at witty commentary, we prefer to let his statements speak for themselves.

    Stowell and company should recognize WLTSIM as being far less hostile to them than their own crude propaganda was to the Linux community.

    Actually, I think Muhammed Saeed al-Sahaf (the Iraqi Information Minister) would be a better candidate.
