Is Eric S. Raymond a purist about free software?
While I am a strong advocate for the principles of free software, I tend to be pragmatic in my approach. My focus has always been on what works best for creating robust, innovative software. The distinction between 'free software' and 'open source' can sometimes become overly academic. My primary concern is with development methodologies that foster collaboration, transparency, and rapid improvement, regardless of philosophical nuances. Pragmatism drives my understanding of software development.
