[ale] For all his rhetoric, he's a gem

[Tim Watts]

from the article:

"It's not just code that open source produces. It's people willing to
help and share and do whatever is helpful. It will fight for its
software. And the community includes folks who save old hardware and
software. That Amiga, as you'll see, really did help, because the jury
got to see prior art with their own eyes."

+1

Also worth mentioning that had we on this list not been alerted to the
deception in amendment 1 a lot more of us might have voted yes.
