Ignoring the rest of this thread, the start of which hasn't reached my
inbox yet...
We are not against "Intellectual property", or copyright in general.
This is the kind of phrasing I'd expect in a "Linux is for communists"
article. We just like to license our copyrighted stuff in a particular
way, and generally prefer software that does that too.
So I think you really need to avoid this odd terminology, if it's not
what you mean, or understand.
