I was like, what is this guy on about? After reading this, it all makes sense now.
We are going offtopic, but I guess you could say I have been convinced by rms why I think we should talk about "Free/Libre Software" instead of "Open Source" even though the latter term seem to be used much more often nowadays. Well, they are "just words" after all, but as the legacy corporate media propagandists know very well, using different words can convey very different meanings...
Why Open Source misses the point of Free Software

RMS, that's a name I haven't heard in a long time.
I'm going to assume you've been in the Linux game almost as long as I have been, not many people know RMS.
The way I see the whole "pine thing" is the same way as the early Linux years. Great things ahead for all of us getting into this as early as we are.
