I note that
- Stallman isn't everyone's idea of Moses or Solon.
- whether there is anything wrong with _taking money away_ from Microsoft,
the issue is surely whether it is wise to _become dependent on_ money
from Microsoft.
- if this in any way results in _less_ effort going into Unix and MacOS
versions of Mercury, it gores _my_ ox, so you can't expect me to be
pleased with it.
