Fork the BSA!
Open source companies need to respond to the cynical BSA conspiracy
with their own equivalent of and equally cynical open source BSA.
Go into classrooms and teach them all about piracy and hand out
RHAT, Ubuntu, Knoppix, all sheds loads of all the other open source software
so that kids know where the alternatives are and how get access to them.
All the open source businesses need to get together and organise
this ASAP as they stand to gain 100% from going into the class rooms
and showing students OpenOffice, gimp, K-3D, Gambas, Torcs, Nexuiz, xmaxima,
rasmol, firefox, knode, konqueror, scribus, etc, etc, etc,
