Yes, a strike is more like it. I don't like it. I don't care much
about kubuntu, since I don't like KDE, and forcing Canonical to
support them more than what they want in this way doesn't strike me as
nice. I am not fully informed on this, I think. But from this point of
view, if they don't have the money they should ask their users, not
canonical. I don't see anything wrong with asking for contributions,
or indeed with making a buck out of their free software efforts.
