You still won't have to use non-free software in order to get the latest
piece of software, the kernel's patches are just diff output. (Or so
I think.)

Going against linux people for using BK is like going against all
free software developers that use source forge, or use vi, or use mozilla,
or do cross development to non free OS. It's just irracional...

The Linux Kernel is still Free Software, has always been and I can se no
reason for not staying that way just because some of the developers started
using BK...
