    Yep. The people do not understand IP. I have had every significant piece of original code or graphic that I wrote ripped off, as in my name removed and someone else' inserted ranging from goberment to small business users. For me it is no problem as long as I get credit but that is a story for another day...What really bites is that Mom and Dad still think it is okay to ripp-off without paying despite my discord?

  18. shares on Red Hat Walks The Linux Tightrope · · Score: 1

    My shares in rhat have been diving the past two weeks so maybe there is a campaign to undermine the company and what they stand for: open source? I am holding onto the shares and still searching for the root cause of the negitivity.
