[ros-kernel] RE: Re: Legal... and a idea or two

[Steven E. <Ste...@kn...>]

This goes along with a idea I was having about the developer CD I'm getting
together. My plan was to make a ReactOS distribution CD for developers and
distributed it to the major OSS/GPL supporters around the world. RMS,ESR,
Miguel de Icaza, Bruce Perens and 25 or so professors at major universitys
that teach Comp Sci using GNU software.

I'm willing to put up the cash to pay for a mailling distrabution.
Let me know what you think

Steven

P.S. Isnt this more of a ros-general topic =P

Please don't use html in your email, and never make assumptions about 
people's color schemes.  At first your message looked blank to me
because I 
use white text on a black background, and you had forced the text color
to 
black.  As for your question, no, we are not.  We should seriously think

about transferring ownership of the project to the FSF as they have the 
resources to put up a legal defence.
