Today at 11:28am, Raghavendra Bhat mailed Me too :
Stressing on the `free beer' aspect of Free Software is downright
suicidal.
Instead of using the word "FREE", use "FREEDOM" :) . All this
things are depend on the type people, who are lessening. If Tech
people then, highlight the aspects of learning and sharing of knowledge
etc. For Normal User, highlight the aspect of Adv and cost.
I feel, FSF *philosophy* is hard to understand by newbies :)
So GNU/People can take different route(s) to make the Normal
people to understand it.
In college, just form a L.U.Stud.G !!! make one Prof as adviser
or something like this. Try to introduce GNU/* thru him, that is
more ( I feel ) appropriate and Safe way of doing things. :)
Bye :)
