Should Ubuntu include closed source binary drivers for fancy graphics?
Jono Bacon has started a huge thread on his blog asking the (deceptively) simple question ‘Should Ubuntu include closed source binaries for 3-d graphics for a range of video cards, or should the distribution with a heart remain fully free/open source?
We are up to around 30 pages of A4 and 90+ comments. I’ll try to condense the arguments a little before the Christmas duvet beckons. This one blog post has made me think more about open source than any number of manifestos!
