I-RMS: Kulesi sahluko ngilungise izitatimende ezimbalwa mayelana nemicabango nemizwa yami, futhi ngalungisa ubutha obungenasisekelo ekuchazeni ezinye izehlakalo. Izitatimende zikaWilliams zethulwa ngendlela yazo yoqobo ngaphandle uma kuboniswe ngenye indlela.
Buza noma ubani ochithe isikhathi esingaphezu komzuzu enkampanini ka-Richard Stallman, futhi bonke bazokutshela into efanayo: khohlwa izinwele zakhe ezinde, khohlwa ubucwebe bakhe, into yokuqala oyiqaphelayo amehlo akhe. Bheka nje emehlweni akhe aluhlaza kanye futhi uzoqonda ukuthi ubheka uchwepheshe wangempela.
Ukushayela u-Stallman ngokuthi uyathatheka kuwukubukela phansi. Akakubheki ubheka ngawe. Uma ubheka eceleni ngokungahlakaniphi, amehlo kaStallman aqala ukuvutha ekhanda lakho njengemishayo emibili ye-laser.
Kungenzeka ukuthi yingakho ababhali abaningi bechaza uStallman ngesitayela senkolo. Esihlokweni esithi ISalon.com ngo-1998, ngaphansi kwesihloko esithi "The Saint of Free Software," u-Andrew Leonard ubiza amehlo aluhlaza kaStallman "akhazimula amandla omprofethi weTestamente Elidala." Isihloko sikamagazini ka-1999 Wired uthi intshebe kaStallman imenza "abukeke njengoRasputin." Futhi encwadini kaStallman I-London Guardian ukumamatheka kwakhe kubizwa ngokuthi "ukumamatheka komphostoli ngemva kokuhlangana noJesu"
Izifaniso ezinjalo ziyamangalisa, kodwa azilona iqiniso. Baveza uhlobo oluthile lwesidalwa esingafinyeleleki, esingaphezu kwemvelo, kuyilapho uStallman wangempela esengozini, njengabo bonke abantu. Bukela amehlo akhe isikhashana futhi uzoqonda: URichard wayengakulahlisi noma ekugqolozele, wayezama ukukubheka emehlweni. Yile ndlela i-Asperger's syndrome ezibonakalisa ngayo, isithunzi sayo esisengqondweni kaStallman. URichard ukuthola kunzima ukuxhumana nabantu, akazizwa ukuthintana, futhi ekukhulumisaneni kufanele athembele eziphethweni ezicatshangelwayo kunemizwa. Olunye uphawu ukuzicwilisa ngezikhathi ezithile. Amehlo kaStallman, ngisho ekukhanyeni okukhanyayo, angama futhi afiphale, njengawesilwane esilimele esizophuma umoya.
Ngaqala ukuhlangana nalo mbono ongajwayelekile ka-Stallman ngo-March 1999, ku-LinuxWorld Conference and Expo e-San Jose. Bekuyingqungquthela yabantu nezinkampani ezihlotshaniswa nesoftware yamahhala, uhlobo “lobusuku bokubona”. Kusihlwa kwakufana kuStallman - wanquma ukubamba iqhaza, ukudlulisela ezintathelini kanye nomphakathi jikelele umlando wephrojekthi ye-GNU kanye nemibono yayo.
Kwakungokokuqala ngqa ngithola isiqondiso sokuthi ngingabhekana kanjani noStallman, futhi ngingaqondile. Lokhu kwenzeke esithangamini sabezindaba ebesinikezelwe ekukhululweni kwe-GNOME 1.0, indawo yamahhala yedeskithophu yezithombe. Ngaphandle kokwazi, ngishaye i-hotkey ye-inflation yakwaStallman ngokubuza nje, “Ucabanga ukuthi ukuvuthwa kwe-GNOME kuzothinta impumelelo yezentengiselwano yohlelo lokusebenza lwe-Linux?”
"Ngicela uyeke ukubiza uhlelo lokusebenza nge-Linux nje," kuphendula uStallman, ngokushesha wangibheka, "i-Linux kernel iyingxenye encane yesistimu yokusebenza. Izinsiza eziningi nezinhlelo zokusebenza ezakha isistimu yokusebenza ovele uyibize nge-Linux akwakhiwanga yi-Torvalds, kodwa ngamavolontiya e-GNU Project. Bachitha isikhathi sabo somuntu siqu ukuze abantu babe nesistimu yokusebenza yamahhala. Kuwukungahloniphi nokungazi ukuxosha amagalelo alaba bantu. Ngakho ngiyabuza: uma ukhuluma ngesistimu yokusebenza, yibize nge-GNU/Linux, ngiyacela."
Ngemva kokubhala phansi lesi sihlava ebhukwini lami lentatheli, ngaphakamisa amehlo ngathola uStallman engigqolozele ngokungacwayizi phakathi kokuthula okukhalayo. Umbuzo ovela kwenye intatheli weza ngokungabaza - kulo mbuzo, kunjalo, bekuyi-"GNU/Linux", hhayi nje "Linux". U-Miguel de Icaza, umholi wephrojekthi ye-GNOME, waqala ukuphendula, futhi phakathi nempendulo yakhe kuphela lapho u-Stallman agcina ebheke eceleni, futhi ukuqhaqhazela kokukhululeka kwehla ngomgogodla wami. Uma u-Stallman ejezisa omunye umuntu ngokungapeli kahle igama lesistimu, uyajabula ngokuthi akakubhekile.
I-tirades kaStallman ikhiqiza imiphumela: izintatheli eziningi ziyeka ukubiza uhlelo lokusebenza kalula nge-Linux. Ku-Stallman, ukujezisa abantu ngokukhipha i-GNU egameni lohlelo akuyona into engaphezu kwendlela engokoqobo yokukhumbuza abantu ukubaluleka kwephrojekthi ye-GNU. Ngenxa yalokho, i-Wired.com esihlokweni sayo iqhathanisa uRichard nomguquli wamaBolshevik kaLenin, owasulwa kamuva emlandweni kanye nezenzo zakhe. Ngokunjalo, imboni yamakhompiyutha, ikakhulukazi izinkampani ezithile, izama ukubukela phansi ukubaluleka kwe-GNU nefilosofi yayo. Kwalandela ezinye izindatshana, futhi yize izintatheli ezimbalwa zibhala ngohlelo njenge-GNU/Linux, iningi liyamnikeza isikweletu uStallman ngokudala isoftware yamahhala.
Ngemva kwalokho angizange ngimbone uStallman cishe izinyanga ezingu-17. Ngalesi sikhathi, waphinde wavakashela iSilicon Valley embukisweni weLinuxWorld ka-Agasti 1999, futhi ngaphandle kokuvela okusemthethweni, wajabulisa umcimbi ngokuba khona kwakhe. Ekwamukela i-Linus Torvalds Award for Public Service egameni le-Free Software Foundation, u-Stallman wahleka: “Ukunikeza i-Free Software Foundation i-Linus Torvalds Award kufana nokunikeza i-Rebel Alliance indondo ye-Han Solo.”
Kodwa kulokhu amazwi kaRichard awazange asabalele kwabezindaba. Maphakathi nesonto, i-Red Hat, umkhiqizi omkhulu we-software ehlobene ne-GNU/Linux, uye esidlangalaleni ngomnikelo womphakathi. Lezi zindaba ziqinisekise lokho obekusolwa kuphela ngaphambilini: "i-Linux" isiba ngundabuzekwayo ku-Wall Street, njengoba nje "i-e-commerce" kanye "ne-dotcom" bekunjalo ngaphambilini. Imakethe yesitoko yayisisondela esiqongweni sayo, ngakho-ke zonke izindaba zezombusazwe mayelana nesofthiwe yamahhala nomthombo ovulekile zafiphala ngemuva.
Mhlawumbe yingakho uStallman engasekho kwiLinuxWorld yesithathu ngo-2000. Futhi ngokushesha ngemva kwalokho, ngahlangana noRichard kanye nesignesha yakhe yokugqolozela okwesibili. Ngezwa ukuthi uya eSilicon Valley futhi ngammemela kwinhlolokhono ePalo Alto. Ukukhetha indawo kwenze inhlolokhono yaba indida—ngaphandle kwaseRedmond, ambalwa amadolobha ase-U.S. angafakaza ngokucace kakhudlwana ngenani lezomnotho lesofthiwe yobunikazi kune-Palo Alto. Kwakuthakazelisa ukubona ukuthi uStallman, ngempi yakhe engenakuphikiswa yokulwa nobugovu nokuhaha, wayengazibamba kanjani edolobheni lapho igaraji elidabukisayo libiza okungenani amaRandi ayizinkulungwane ezingu-500.
Ngilandela izikhombisi-ndlela zika-Stallman, ngiya ekomkhulu le-Art.net, "umphakathi wamaciko" ongenzi nzuzo. Le ndlunkulu iwumjondolo ongakaze ugxunyekwe ngemuva kothango emaphethelweni asenyakatho yedolobha. Yile ndlela ngokuzumayo ifilimu ethi "Stallman in the Heart of Silicon Valley" ilahlekelwa yi-surrealism yayo.
Ngithola uStallman ekamelweni elimnyama, ehlezi kwi-laptop ecofa okhiye. Lapho nje ngingena, ungibingelela ngamalaser akhe aluhlaza angama-watt angu-200, kodwa ngesikhathi esifanayo ungibingelela ngokuthula, futhi ngiyambingelela futhi. URichard ubheka emuva esikrinini se-laptop.
