Revolution OS

[when awarded the Linus Torvalds Award]

Richard M. Stallman:
So, very ironic things have happened, but nothing to match this. Giving the Linus Torvalds Award to the Free Software Foundation is sort of like giving the Han Solo Award to the rebel fleet.

Eric Raymond:
I was at Agenda 2000, and one of the people who was there was Craig Mundy, who is some kind of high mucky-muck at Microsoft. I think Vice President of Consumer Products or something like that. And, I hadn't actually met him. I bumped into him in an elevator, and I looked at his badge and said 'I see you work for Microsoft,' and he loked back at me and said 'Oh, yeah, and what do you do?' and I thought he seemed just a tad dismissive. I mean here is the archtypical guy in a suit looking at a scruffy hacker, and so I gave him the thousand yard stare and said 'I'm your worst nightmare.'

John Mark Walker:
[Last Line] "Hi! We're the GNU/Stallmans, and this is the Free Software Song!"
