That's not "the" thread. That's a thread that proves your basic
point, which I concede. However, to me (and I suspect others) a more
important thread is the one where RMS told off Linus. Clearly I'm not
the only one infected by this meme, and its history should be clarified.
Thank you for clearing up the legalities and Linus's explicit
position, and also for the Google term "AFS".
