Yes, indeed discussing is what FSF has allocated an entire year for. While it is possible that this particular criticism was based on a misunderstanding, which may be an indicator of need for language improvement, all criticism should ideally be put into a comprehensive form and submitted through the gplv3.fsf.org/comments system. If Linus lacks the time to do it himself, maybe some people on this list could help gather his points as possible submissions for improvement? Regards, Georg =2D-=20 Georg C. F.
