    Moglen was RMS's touchstone with reality. Expect future irrelevance of the FSF as RMS heads off into lala land.

    The one person (other than RMS) that's always pointed to by the more rabid GPL adherents, whenever they run out of ammo themselves, now abandon ships. He's not going to make sure (by his or RMS' super powers) that the GPL3 is going to prevail in court. What does that make you think? I think that your legal idol doesn't want to risk the cross. Now, how about you? How certain does that make you feel?

    Mod me down, I have karma burps.
