James Governor told me the story was a “joke” a few hours after I wrote about it. I thought of modifying my own post, then I realized that so much of what is written about technology is a joke, though the author’s probably don’t think so, that the writing could stand on its own, as an example of how one tries to respond to a report with a reasoned analysis.
thanks,dave

Stallman is the joke, each and every time he insists someone say “GNU/Linux.” Richard sent me an email back in 1998 in which he claimed to be the author of Linux!

However, I should have known this was a joke because James wrote it. He has become the viral botnet of twitter of late, with nary a blog post in sight.

Hey guys, this was indeed an April Fool. looks like i punkd Dave Shields (who refuses to note i have been blogging again owing to his coaching). no shame dave- i even punkd Stephen, who read this at a glance on an iPod.

Michelle i would love to claim credit for Free TM but that was someone smarter than me.

Very cute Sir James. Happy April 1. The TM symbol on Free was the pure genius icing on the Free cake.

Nice post James, did you also see the related press release annoucing that Oracle is planning to buy SAP and open source SAP apps?
