The disputes between Free and Open Source date back to their origins.

Citat:
"The fundamental difference between the two movements is in their values, their ways of looking at the world. For the Open Source movement, the issue of whether software should be open source is a practical question, not an ethical one. For the Free Software movement, non-free software is a social problem and free software is the solution."
Hehehe, non-free software = social problem :). Nije to još ništa, idemo dalje.

For example, de Icaza was once a part of the FSF. He was actually the recipient of its second Award for the Advancement of Free Software in 1999..

But de Icaza said he was kicked out of the FSF for not strictly adhering to its policy of referring to the Linux operating system as GNU/Linux and ensuring that it was always referenced as such in the press or in any interviews that he gave.

Citat:
In de Icaza's opinion, the FSF "hijacked" Mono's own announcement and announced Mono as the GNU Mono project. "Obviously, everyone in the company (Ximian) was upset about that," de Icaza said. "There were some bad sentiments there."
A jok bre, ne prepisuju oni .NET, nego..
Citat:
Bello said he doesn't consider DotGNU to be a free implementation of the .NET development framework (as Mono sees itself). Rather, he sees DotGNU as "a competing framework, which aims to provide compatibility with Microsoft's .NET framework."
..spašavaju svet:
Citat:
For Bello, the decision to build a framework that is compatible with .NET is based on market reality. "In the industry, companies are using Microsoft stuff. The only way we can make it possible at acceptable cost to migrate to GNU/Linux is by making it possible for them to run their essential apps on both systems," he said. "My goal is to prevent Microsoft from catching the world in their .NET."
E ovo je da čovek crkne od smeha :)
