At RedHat we had some of the finest linux geeks in the world, right
there under one roof. With the source code, the cut n paste could have
been fixed and the fix gifted back to Oracle. Win-Win right? Well, it
didn't happen while I was there. If it ain't the Right Thing, and cannot
be fixed, it's an evil. No doubt about that, viewed in that perspective.
But it's not Evil Incarnate, there is a difference.
Evil Incarnate is exhibited when children have bombs land on their
houses and they get ripped apart by the acts of madmen. And we elect
them to serve our interests.
Sorry, I just peeked at the late news and I feel sick.
