リチャード・マシュー・ストールマン、別名RMS、は
何十年にもわたってフリーソフトウェア運動への原動力です。
ストールマンの貢献はGNUオペレーティングシステムとEmacs
を含めています。
最近、個人的な意見を述べることに関しストールマンさんをFSF
の取締役会から外そうとするため、多くの卑劣なコメントが
インターネット上で広がっています。今に至るまで、私たちは
他のフリーソフトウェア運動家やプログラマーに同じような
組織的な中傷作戦が行われたことを目撃していました。今回こそ、
フリーソフトウェアコミュニティーの象徴への攻撃から目をそらす
ことができません。
FSFは自律的財団だからこそ、公平的そして偏りのない方法でメンバーを
扱うことができます。外部からの圧力に屈する必要はありません。FSFに、
ストールマンさんに対する反対論を客観的に考慮するよう、そして彼の言動
を心から理解するよう強く求めたいと思います。
Historically, RMS has been expressing his views in ways
that upset many people. He is usually more focused on the
philosophical underpinnings, and pursuing the objective
truth and linguistic purism, while underemphasising people's
feelings on matters he's commenting on. This makes his arguments
vulnerable to misunderstanding and misrepresentation, something
which we feel is happening in the open letter calling for his removal.
His words need to be interpreted in this context and
taking into account that more often than not,
he is not looking to put things diplomatically.
Regardless, Stallman's opinions on the matters
he is being persecuted over are not relevant to
his ability to lead a community such as the FSF.
Furthermore, he is entitled to his opinions just
as much as anyone else. Members and supporters do not
have to agree with his opinions, but should respect
his right to freedom of thought and speech.
**To the FSF:**
Removing RMS will hurt FSF's image and will deal
a significant blow to the momentum of the free software movement.
We urge you to consider your actions carefully,
as what you will decide will have a serious impact
on the future of the software industry.
**To the ambush mob who is ganging up on Richard Stallman over
reasonable arguments in debate and various opinions and beliefs
voiced over decades as a public figure:**
You have no part in choosing the leadership of any communities.
Especially not via another mob attack which does not remotely
resemble a fairly conducted debate as exemplified
by better people such as Richard Stallman.
