Well, let's look at what people's perceptions are after their speech and your protest. I remain convinced that while the people there are going to be interested in Microsoft's appearance, they will be smart enough to apply their own filters and Free Software will not be damaged. In contrast, I think you offer the potential to damage our own side, albeit only mildly.
Thanks
Bruce
