That's exactly what Dell is doing with its IdeaStorm web site, which has been set up by the company to solicit ideas and feedback. It deleted a post that linked to an article that criticized its handling of the "preinstalled Linux" issue.

The article explains that the FSF corporate program allows companies to provide financial assistance to the FSF in return for license consulting services. The article goes on to observe that this move is doubtlessly motivated by Sun's interest in the direction that GPL3 is going to take.

Now that sun has opened up Java and become an FSF corporate sponsor...could the move to dual license Opensolaris under the GPL3 be far behind?"
