Right. Besides, as the whole notion of "free software" has very little to
do with the kernel, please just link to some open source site. One of the
more neutral ones is "http://www.debian.org/social_contract.html", for

Remember: we're not the Judean People's Front, we're the People's Front of
Judea. Or maybe we're the Popular Front for the Liberation of Judea. I get
confused.
