[OS:N:] Unite and conquer

Great article by Evan Leibovitch

"A recent commentary by Robin Miller regarding squabbling within the
free software and open source communities was a useful wake-up call.
This bickering is having a detrimental effect on our ability to confront
those who are trying to convince policy and opinion makers against the
use of free and open source software (FOSS). These challenges are
neither severe nor insurmountable, but they do require the parties
understand the differences between internal and external debate."

In an ironic twist, the behavior Roblimo was arguing against in the
original commentary came out in spades in the thread. (Robin states the
main difference in movements is "when I say GNU/Linux the open source
crowd doesn't flame me").
