One of the employees wrote a utility program and he started selling it as nonfree software. He was not just selling copies the way I was doing; he was restricting the users. But he offered the school a copy at no charge, and the people in charge of the computer facility said, &ldquo;No, we will not install this here because our rule is the source code must be on display. If you will not let us put the source code of this program on display, we just will not run your program.&rdquo; This inspired me because it was a willingness to renounce a practical convenience for the sake of something more important which is the mission of the school: education.
