Subject: Re: [PATCH] Remove Bitkeeper documentation from Linux tree
Date: Mon, 22 Apr 2002 13:37:19 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3CC4585F.4060005@greshamstorage.com> (raw)
Jeff,
The BK documentation constitutes an implicit advertisement and
endorsement of a product with a license which to many developers
violates the spirit of open source software. This is not to say that BK
is not an effective product, nor that the document in question is useful
for people who choose the tool, but to me it seems comparable to
including a closed source binary module in the kernel distribution.
Moving the document to the BK website would be nicer, and would
certainly assauge bad feelings regarding such an integral implicit
endorsement of a tool.
--Jonathan--
