Yeah, I saw that part Karl, but the bottom line in their position was to limit our choices and choose for us their oppresive views. It's also tortorious to post such a petition as a mean to attack a for profit endeavor, whether the profit is kudos or consideration. Try pulling this on Novell or Microsoft, and watch how fast you go to court.
These people are bullies.
