I posted a question about this on the debian devel newsgroup and no-one seemed interested but the best way to get something done is to do it yourself. Get in there and hack some code!
It looks like the sit-in was a success! it was open before 3pm (PST) today (30th) and after I participated (only about 50 reloads) the site was totally down for at least an hour so far.
I think that Capitalism is the best form of governmet that we have to offer yet. (Compare it to Socialism and Communism) But money runs Capitalism. If people can see the beyond money and into what money brings. As in 1984 "Not money, power, raw unadultered power". If we can get past Capitalism and into more of a Libertarian form of government money would not be a problem. There would be equal freedom for everyone, freedom for all! This is NOT Communism!!! With the leftist form of government power is given unto a few who rule with absolute power over the many. Let Freedom Ring!
Reading the appendix of the New Hackers Dictionary was like reading my biography. People who are "geeks" or "nerds" are people who are alike and don't try to fit a particular image. And as the NHD said, there are people in this community who are traditional Christians. And people who do participate in sports (not me, I despise most of them). The hacker community are people (with their faults) are able to be contributing citizens of a world community. And I cannot see how someone can say that they are Leftists. Communists are leftists!!! We are (mostly) Libertarians and despise left/right politics. Freedom is king! I associate more with the Right than the Left any day. Look at a politicians attitude towards gun control. If a Republican wants to pass more laws he might as well have been a Democrat. If a Republican wants to destroy current gun control laws he knows the desires of the people. Thomas Jefferson knew that "a government should be frugal, and should give the people the rights to their own lives". And just because I'm a Christian and a Libertarian/Right wing don't accuse me of not being a "true nerd" I even have my own Linux distribution! (http://www.linuxstart.com/~Penguin Head/SKAlinux/)
that's what I was thinking. Why not just use a GPL cd anyway. sub flamebait { print "(or better yet just use Debian)"; }
and the anarchists should be separated from the rioters. remember there were plenty of non-violent anarchists there.
