This has got to drive RMS nuts



I just noticed that Microsoft has used the acronym 'RMS' to stand for 
'Rights Management Services'[1].  That has got to drive the real RMS 
nuts.  Well, actually, I can't speak for him, but it kinda drives me 
nuts because it seems like they are using their marketing dollars in a 
thinly veiled personal affront to their nemesis.

Still, if you google for 'rms', the first result is a link to rms' 
homepage[2]. 

Maybe the fsf should launch a project that preserves individual rights 
to access technology and call the project 'No Gates'.  :-)
