Yavor, you're right.  Free Software is more than a good idea.  It's a
fantastically important, revolutionary and immediately effective idea

Excellent point!  This is exactly what I meant about finding practical
ways to link people's concerns with the answers they need.

Perhaps - for the betterment of this thread - you could point out a few
of key things RMS and Eben said.

Which links did you follow for the transcripts?  Perhaps (just an idea)
you could blog about the kernel developer concerns and point out these
links?
