The English language lacks here, only having one word "free" and two entirely different meanings. The free software movement has adopted the phrase, "Free as in speech, not free as in beer." Free as in speech, cf. libre in Spanish, is about freedom. Free as in beer, cf. gratis in Spanish, is about not paying for something. It's also about a good time. :) - Karsten > > I think I understand what you are saying, but not enough to define it > for someone else. > > Thanks, > Buck > > -----Original Message----- > From: fedora-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx] > On Behalf Of Howard Owen > Sent: Friday, September 26, 2003 2:46 AM > To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: thank you red Hat > > > I second that! > SNIP > > > > -- > fedora-list mailing list > fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx > http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list -- Karsten Wade : Tech Writer, RHCE : o: +1.831.466.9664 kwade@xxxxxxxxxx : http://rhea.redhat.com/ : c: +1.831.818.9995 Red Hat Enterprise Applications : WAF, CMS, Portal Server -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
