Actually, the word Jihad is getting a bad rap in our society. It does not 
always mean holy war. The speaker at Harvard pointed that out when the 
title of his speech included that word. Jihad also means struggle. 

One of my coworkers used to work at BSDI and is active in Usenix. Last year 
Clem Cole, who chaired the Freenix side of the house, wore a Linux shirt 
and a BSD-Demon hat.
