Brubaker on Thursday 30/Aug/2001, @20:46 I see no harm that can come from this... I'm an Open Racer developer ( a very small one on a very great and much more talented team ), and our goal is to keep the Tux Racer (turning Comercial) code base alive... We do not damn Tux Racer, we wish it success! If we have life our way, we will replace Tux Racer on all Distros (especialy the GPL'd release), while Tux Racer will grow and offer a serious, and cool, comercial offering for those who are willing to pay for it... I think Open Source and Comercial can live together... Until any comercial product overly dominates and gets Greedy... Then, and only then, is it important that all comercial and Open operations come together and bring an open standard... If you are fighting Microsoft, you would see that Open Source and Comercial offerings are a good thing... (However, this might be a distorted view) If you are fighting all comercial operations, and really believe this product will enslave the world... You are even wronger, because Open Source alternatives will not slow...	Related Links  ·   Articles on Applications  ·   Also by Gregory W.

[ Reply To This | View ] Re: This can only be good news... by Gregory W. Brubaker on Friday 31/Aug/2001, @07:06 Exactly... Its a question of Time, Price, and quality... Comercial products like this may be better for, say, the city of Largo, or others large groups looking to use linux... than the individual; however, it can only be a good thing... And hopefully any comercial effort that fails will release Open Source... [ Reply To This | View ]   The Fine Print: The previous comments are owned by whomever posted them. ( Reply )
