After reading that Wolfgang Schäuble (in my opinion one of the biggest assholes we have in Germany) will be the patron of the LinuxTag I am really not sure if I will visit the LinuxTag. This would be my first time cause I had the impression that the LinuxTag is a) very commercial oriented (aka for business users) and b) Karlsruhe was always too far away for me.

I guess a big part of the critics against the plans of Schäuble are people from the OS,FS,Linux, and now this event has him as patron?
I am sorry to say this, but whoever made this decision, FUCK OFF!

And yes I know that it's tradition to use the Bundesinnenministerium for the patron but this is really overkill!


UPDATE: there is an official statement regarding this issue now: http://www.linuxtag.org/2007/de/home/willkommen/newsitem/article/stellungnahme-zur-schirmherrschaft.html (sorry German)
