It was completely not my tactics. It's Tony's tactics. By the time
Tony got to LWE last year, I was the only one left who would even talk to
him. He was simply unwilling to use his connections for something as
mundain as helping Free Software developers sell to the government. It
was at that point, that I decided I had really no longer much use for
him.
That pretty much closed out his efforts in NY.
getting back to the MS presentation, we've been reviewing the speaker's
track record and his presentation on egovos. It makes it clearer that
he is flatout lieing about events in such a way which will be almost
impossible for the uninitiated to interpret or understand.
For example, He says on Orielly that somehow MS got caught up in an
unimportant arguement about the GPL, and now they want to move on to
something of more substantive.
really now? Their frontal attack on the most important FS tool is hardly
unimportant, and those who vigerously argued with them were painted as
wackos by MS.
Let MS pitch this BS elsewhere.
Further he said that everyone is moving towards the middle>
HUH?
Say again.
Does this mean MS is going to retract their purgury in court, and end their
radical program to lock down and spy on every computer in the world?
Please.
Never underestimate your enemy. If this a program designed to pitch FS, then
let MS first play by the rules and EARN a place at the table. They haven't
yet earned a place.
