• iophk: From many of the articles, you can pick up the feeling that many of the FreeBSD users consider Linux and not Windows to be the competition to be poached from. Rather than as an ally or collaborator There are exceptions but the pro-Windows, anti-Linux user is stereotypical for their community. I wish that would change.

The idea is that there should be cooperation there or at worst "coopetition" Microsoft is able to misdirect many of them though, even though 'OSS' as a concept was intended as a stepping stone to full software freedom. Pernes wrote about that in detail a while back."
