Re: Funding GPL projects or funding the GPL?

[Federico Ferreres <fferreres@ojf.com>]

I stated a simple idea aimed at solving a real world issue. And you
haven't proved it wrong. It may not be what you or the kernel hackers
need/want (which is FINE). But it would solve ALL the funding problems
at least.

The name calling is ok, but only if it makes you feel smarter or
superior.

Regards,

Federico
