This strikes me as a very interesting point. For some time I have had in
the
back of mind that all the talk about free and the source is fine if you
belong to the technically elite - the new class that along with its allies
in
legal academia are fast becoming one layer of law/control within the net.
It seems that free as speech as in FLOSS then really means free within
that
elite - and that those who are not within the elite (who are not
technically
minded) are beholden to the closed knowledge kept in the new monastries of
cycberspace.
I think I agree, but... Can you tell one of us not in this elite what FLOSS
is an acronym for? (*snigger*)
