Subject: free speach and KDE
moin, moin,

just ran into some interesting things about why KDE isn't included in
debian and thought I'd pass on a few links for those who are concerned
with the rights guaranteed by the GPL.

http://slashdot.org/articles/00/06/06/135218.shtml, note the links to web
pages with further info about the issue.

http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-software-for-freedom.html, "free
software" vs. "open source" from RMS, which has a link to the "free
software" definition, http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html.

http://slashdot.org/articles/00/06/13/1642213.shtml, 5th article down is
further info from Dr. Günter.

Just to provide more flame against KDE :),
http://freshmeat.net/news/2000/06/17/961300740.html. Joseph has posted
this story in many places in the last year or so.

ciao,

der.hans
