Would that not have been the job of the organisers? Have organised meetings with Richard, including with governmental bodies and things progressed decently. Should people have been wronged, in small ways or big ones, many countries provide recourse for that. How it is that many want the Gnu Tag he build. One can simply continue the work and have a website or some other way for distribution. I frequently do that, make software without the Gnu Association. Gnu could be better with me, but I left the decision for RMS on whether he wanted new types of projects that were not port of Gnu at the time.
