Good point. I thought rms gave enough of the appropriate disclaimers about
Jobs' death to make his point with the appropriate amount of taste. That ZDNet
article obviously felt otherwise because they couldn't resist a slam on
Stallman.
Perhaps with Ritchie's passing rms felt he'd caught enough heat about
commenting about people when they die?
