GCC 5 Is Compiling Faster, But Still Falls Short Of Clang

[tarceri]

My idea of freedom is not needing projects I don't agree with to be dead.
My other idea of freedom is that if you start with an ideal of how software should be, and spend time writing a compiler to accomplish that, you can release that compiler with any license terms you wish. Valid for GCC, Clang, whatever.

Well put.

No one claimed it was the one and only reason but if you actually believe what you are saying you are deluded big time.

You managed to contradict yourself in a single sentence bravo

Is that really the best you 15 year old Slashdot kiddies can do?

the license has very little to do with this.

The death of GCC is a major milestone for the Open Source world to rid itself of viral licenses like the GPL and standardize on Free and Open licenses like BSD.

Looking through your (relatively short) post history shows nothing but trolling...

Why thank you I didn't realise I still looked so young.

No the best I can do is actually contribute to projects rather than just bash them like youself.

Why is it people like you have to have everything the way that fits your world view? Whats wrong with having both licences?

You call stallman a wackjob, yet your presenting a view that is just as uncompromising. Kettle black?

When the wackjob of a cult leader of your nutty ideology is this much of a loon it shouldn't surprise anyone but the 15 year Slashdot kiddies who make up the bulk his supporters that any projects saddled with that sickening worldview is going to be garbage like GCC and the rest of the GNU projects.

Why is it people like you have to have everything the way that fits your world view? Whats wrong with having both licences? And projects providing healthy competition? Without stallman and gcc everyone would still be paying for compilers.

"If GCC is modular, it makes it much easier to write plugins that are not, in law, derivative works. And again, for Free Software folks, that is highly undesirable."
