The whole point as I visualise is the chance to organise the IT industry.
As per the Right to Freedom http://www.iloveindia.com/constitution-of-india/right-to-freedom.html and http://www.un.org/Overview/rights.html there is nothing wrong in organisation.
From the mail I get the feeling that the author implies that people in the IT industry are incapable to exercise their freedom to choose whether they want to organise or be organised or not either independently or otherwise.
Please don't put words into my mouth. All I pointed out was what could be in there for left, when Raj asked what could be in the community for the left.
I did not say organising is good or bad. Please read only what I write and not your imaginations. If you want to do that, place your name below it, not mine. The point about organising is a different matter altogether, all I said was there is a chance for left to do it with Free Software. I did not say they already plan it or doing it.
