   I feel like there should be a list of (prominent) free software developers who don't really understand free software.

     @victor "free software" as in "free and open source" as in "libre" as in "freedom-respecting"
     
     Funny how the term "free software" was originally coined in English yet it's the one language that makes it incredibly hard to explain.

     It's easy for me to understand what "free software" is supposed to mean, because there is only one definition of that term that is not superfluous :marseypirate: :marseypirate2:
