RMS Views on Linux, Java, DRM and Opensource

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the priming-the-flame-wars dept.

An anonymous reader writes "All About Linux is running a transcript of a recent talk given by Richard Stallman at the Australian National University. Stallman discussed various issues facing GNU like the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, Digital Rights Management, about why one should not install sun's java on your computer, his views on Opensource as well as why he thinks people should address Linux distribution as GNU/Linux."

    To become a saint in the church of Emacs does not require celibacy.
    And strangely enough if this rule changed not a single one of the saints would notice a difference.
