If the House Un-American Activities Committee asked me, &ldquo;Are you now or have you ever been a supporter of the open source movement,&rdquo; I could proudly and cheerfully say no. I've been campaigning since 1984 for free software &mdash;free as in freedom. (See the GNU Manifesto, Dr. Dobb's Journal, Sept. 1985.)
