It's hard not to be impressed by rms' adherence to his views on
free software and that they have remained virtually unchanged
since the early 80's. He is probably the most interviewed free
software advocate on the planet. You can get a pretty clear
picture of his views by reading the philosophy docs at
and then following that up with the google search
http://www.google.com/search?q=richard+stallman+interview
I am not sure an IRC session with him could answer any questions
or expose any opinions he has not previously expressed.
