This breaks the embargo. (Kudos to, IIRC, Florian Weimer for discovering<br>
this… “gem”.) It is therefore not possible, so it’s not possible to run<br>

If you look at how RHEL embargoes security information to only paid Enterprise customers, on software they don't own, you can see the problem. You only like sequestering security information when it's you sequestering it from script kiddies, not when it's being sequestered from you.</div><div><br></div><div>IMO the right to sequester "private modifications" went obsolete as soon as there was SaaS. It's not in the OSD and I never considered it fundamental to Free Software or Open Source. To the extent that Richard Stallman believes it's a fundamental right, I think he's mistaken and needs to modify his policy.</div><div><br></div><div> Thanks</div><div><br></div><div> Bruce</div></div></div>
