I think the author is pretty biased away from Java, at least when compared to C#. If you look at the sample code, the class name for C# is always one letter, but for Java it's always spelled out.

This doesn't really have a lot to do with package management. If your desktop environment and the program you are installing follows the freedesktop.desktop file standard, it already Just Works.
Right, MSN probably don't care much about Linux MSN users. But if gaim drops MSN support when it becomes illegal to do so, there is no "infringing" whatsoever.

As the gaim site and ChipX86's reply to the slashdot headline said, if it's illegal, gaim would just drop MSN support. Your imagination went a bit too far.
Wow, how do you know me so well?
Well, the slippers that I am wearing happen to be broken, so you are right that I am wearing a pair of cheap shoe, I guess.
But other than that, your post not even is offtopic, it does not even reflect fact.
First of all, I am not even White, how can I be "poor white trash"? Nor have I ever been to Virginia.
Simply because I disagree with you doesn't mean that you need to attack me like this.
The correct thing to say is: "Requiring a license may or may not mean blocking".
Mircosoft has plenty of ways to make sure unlicensed client cannot connect, consider that authentication is now done over SSL.

If this is the case, then clearly HTML predates it.

Print the black-out'ed paper and then scan them back is probably easier
No you cannot. If your LGPL code links to GPL code, then it needs to be GPL'ed as well.

I believe "Add it yourself" is the rightful response to people who make rude comments.
Jabber servers can optionally use SSL. I believe MSNv8 also uses SSL.

Yes, and it has been explained many times why this is the case. Search the gaim-devel mailing list archive and the gaim sf forum.
I don't know. But people who uses profanity on a public website tend not to know any better.
Gaim does not use Windows registry, even when running on Windows.
The name that you chose to post under says all. This is the end of this discussion.
Please provide a link that says "GAIM isn't for causal users anyways" that's posted by a developer of gaim.
Please, I personally would like to dig out the person who called gaim GAIM.
As mentioned in the gaim site, using the newest protocol may or may not mean gaim can connect to MSN servers.

The developer has made it clear that if it's illegal, gaim would not do it.

Gaim already support protocol plugins. You can write your own MSN (or any other protocol) support any time.
