Salva,
Thanks for the complement. I was referring to Support, Subscription &
Service model of business that Redhat and other Free Software

SaaS as a phrase tends towards Cloud Computing etc., which Richard M
Stallman does not endorse. Associating it with RMS is misleading.
Just to avoid any confusion caused to readers.
