"I’ve read many historical books on the subject [of Open Source], including [Richard M Stallman]’s biography and many older writings.

RMS was right since the very beginning. Every warning, every prophecy realised. And, worst of all, he had the solution since the start. The problem is not RMS or FSF. The problem is us. The problem is that we didn’t listen."

@mike I hestitated boosting this quite a bit because of RMS in the title & image.
Ultimately I think the blogpost's message is good, especially about the way the OSD was written, so looking past the RMS bit it is a valuable piece.
