Politicians like Anivar Aravind, James Mathews and some others should learn not to play with Free software movements for their petty political gains.
For your kind information, Free Software 'is' a political movement. Since it is so, not just Anivar and James, but all those who are sincerely involved in its activities automatically become politicians. Hope this link http://linux.sys-con.com/node/34189/print will enlighten you.
'petty political gains' are not those and all politics is not 'free software politics'. The goal of the free software politics is certainly not to implement a whole series of actions to discredit or hinder others involved in the free software movement. And I am not talking about Novell.
May be you will consider the differences and not make a mess of it.
