"Free as in Freedom: Richard Stallman's Crusade for Free Software"

com Subject: RMS InterviewDate: Mon, 10
Jul 2000 15:56:37 -0400Dear Mr. Williams,
I read your interview with Richard Stallman on BeOpen
with great interest. I've been intrigued by RMS and his
work for some time now and was delighted to find your
piece which I really think you did a great job of
capturing some of the spirit of what Stallman is trying
to do with GNU-Linux and the Free Software Foundation.
What I'd love to do, however, is read more - and I
don't think I'm alone. Do you think there is more
information and/or sources out there to expand and
update your interview and adapt it into more of a
profile of Stallman? Perhaps including some more
anecdotal information about his personality and
background that might really interest and enlighten
readers outside the more hardcore programming scene?
The email asked that I give Tracy a call to discuss the
idea further. I did just that. Tracy told me her
company was launching a new electronic book line, and
it wanted stories that appealed to an early-adopter
audience.
