“Arbitrary” is probably a better description than “random” here.


I still disagree with arbitrary, just less strongly.

Whether his opinion on GPL is relevant, or if it is, how important it is, is up for debate. But I still don’t think it’s “based on a random choice or personal whim, rather than any reason or system”.


If the ride I'm on has the court asking Richard Stallman what he really meant in his heartest of hearts, I want off it.
