    I have a dream that one day this [OS] will rise up and live out the
    true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident:
    that all [code is] created equal." I have a dream that one day on the
    red[mond] hills of [Washington] the [derived works] of former
    [research projects] and the [derived works] of former [corporations]
    will be able to [link] together [in] a table of [compatibility]. I
    have a dream that one day even the [company of Microsoft], a desert
    [company], sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will
    be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream
    that my four [computers] will one day [run] in a nation where they
    will not be judged by the color of their [GUI] but by the content of
    their [code base]. I have a dream today.

    I have a dream that one day the state of [IP], whose [lawyer's] lips
    are presently dripping with the words of interposition and
    nullification, will be transformed into a situation where little
    [freebsd boxes] and [linux boxes] will be able to [share code] with
    little [windows boxes] and [solaris boxes] and [run] together as
    [clients] and [servers]. I have a dream today. I have a dream that one
    day every [interface] shall be [defined], every [bug] and [error]
    shall be [documented], the [compiler warnings] will be made
    [understandable], and the [stack pages] will be made [no-exec], and
    the glory of the [Code] shall be revealed, and all [users] shall see
    it together. This is our hope. This is the faith with which I return
    to the [buildworld]. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the
    mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able
    to transform the jangling discords of [operating systems] into a
    beautiful [cluster] of [beowulf]. With this faith we will be able to
    work together, to [code] together, to [debug] together, to [core dump]
    together, to stand up for [standards] together, knowing that we will
    be [compatible] one day.

    ...

    Sorry for OT/flamebait , I had to share this. ;)
