How about "I'm a open source liberal, not a free software socialist"?

I really wanted to join in this flame war, but it sounds like we're all
on the same side. Have you already scared off all the free software
socialists from this list?


There are plenty out there, including a lot of university students who
are writing quality code but wasting half the effort by releasing as
GPL. I had an email discussion with a free software advocate recently
who declared my use of liberal-open-source-license code in a commercial
environment was stealing.

Yes, it is me you're referring to I suppose. And all the free software socialists nutters have not left the list :)


But I still fail to see how releasing under GPL is a waste of effort.
