By the way, here is a thread about Gnome's "No flags" policy:
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2003-November/msg00267.htm...
I alwways thought that free software was free like 'free as free speech' not like 'free as in china'. Gnome policy about flags is the beginning of the end for freedom. (that is to say, stopping to speech - not distributing flags - to obey some orders). Today, that just talks about a flag, tomorrow that will be some screensavers or background screen discarded , the day after tomorrow that will may be a software that prevent to post some news on special sites or specially include a patch that prevents to write some words in a word processor.
All that is not free software, gpl or not. free software is not free as free beer.
