Free Software is not only GNU

| Weâve got to worship principles, not people.

| With this I mean that even if I agree with the 
| idea behind FSF and the GNU Project, I donât 
| have to see either Richard Stallman or Linus 
| Torvalds as my personal God, nor I would have 
| to accept the GNU project as the owner of all 
| good software in this world. There is more to 
| that. The same principles apply to other 
| situations, even situations where GNU is 
| laughed at, even situations where GNUâs code 
| is laughed at but their license is used. 
| Because what makes me dislike some of the GNU 
| projectâs applications and in general the FSF 
| (America) approach, is not the license, 
| otherwise I wouldnât be using it extensively 
| for my own projects, both personal and work-
| related.
