Sunday IT Wire counted up the number of signatories on two open letters, one opposing Richard Stallman's return to the FSF and one supporting it. - The pro-Stallman letter had 3,632 individual signers - The anti-Stallman letter had 2,812 individual signers (plus 48 companies and organizations). ...
tbh I would love to see an open letter that calls for a moratorium on open letters. Sadly I think it would cause more drama than it resolved! lol :D
We just have to wait for this to play out, unfortunately. Judging by the back-handed statement from the FSF board that was published on Twitter earlier today, I doubt this will all end pleasantly.
