Re: Does the LGPL encourage sharing of code?

On 08.04.2002, Roger Fujii created this extraordinary piece of literature, which I will thankfully quote in the following:

In general, maybe. But the whole GCC argument of Brett is just ridiculous. There
are commercial compilers out there (which basically suck), GCC is not such a bad
compiler and it is crucial for the Open Source community that there is a free
(both as in beer and as in speech) compiler out there, because not everyone has
the money to buy one. Nobody who has got any brain could tell me that he thinks
that it is bad to have such a good compiler available for free. I know Brett
will do, but I came to the conclusion that Brett is just this script:

#! /bin/sh
cat /dev/urandom | mail [email protected] -s "GPL sucks"

No real person could come up with that much wrong stuff.
