They are also developing many nonfree programs to make them run with the GNU/Linux system and that is not a contribution. And they are publicizing the system, well, it's not a primary contribution but it does help, you know. Having more users is not our primary goal. But it's nice, if more people would try our software, so that does help, but then they're mistakenly calling this Linux which is not quite right, and they're lobbying for software patents in Europe, which is bad. So, you know, IBM is doing many different things. Some are good and some are bad, and if you want to have a thoughtful view, it's important to look at the individual actions. Do not try to add it up because that just means you're missing the important aspects of the situation.
