The mailing list to discuss ideas compatable with the OSD are the lists hosted by <a href="http://opensource.org" target="_blank">opensource.org</a>. This community will (most often politely) inform people when their ideas are incompatable with one of the fundamental tennants of Open Source. If people insist on continuing to disrespect the community by trying to unethically get around the fundamental tennants of Open Source, then the pushback will become harder and harsher. People can't disrespect a community, and then get upset when harsh words are eventually used to defend the community.<br></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Hi Russell,</div><div><br></div><div>I respectfully disagree with the above, to the extent that I don't think that challenging our concepts is ever by itself disrespectful. <br></div><div>Of course, the manner in which concepts are challenged can be disrespectful, but the challenge itself isn't.
