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!

    Happy holidays.
    This is not spam comment, nor concerned with the subject of your post.

    Anyways, you visited my blog and had seen the post on Blog as a teaching tool
    Now, I wish to share something with you.
    My 2007 resolution is a friendly deal to get more comments at my blog and promptly reciprocate.
    Best wishes for 2007.
