Xandros just doesn't get it (Score 1)

[Typaldos] is disappointed with the reaction they've received from the open source community.

I hate to slag a company promoting open source software, but it seems to me that Typaldos, and Xandros just don't understand free software, if he[they] did, they'd understand what's wrong with the deal. Xandros claims that they're doing this at their customer's request, but most people who understand free software understand it's about freedom(s). Jeremy Allison said it well in his Novell resignation letter these deals "violate the intent of the GPL licence." If your customers start thinking that you don't believe in the freedom's the GPL offers then you've lost a lot more than just money, you've lost the trust of your customers.
