You're really something, trying to cast doubt that Stallman even wrote GCC in the first place.
what did Michael Tiemann do
Gonna deny the moon landing too?
Don't tell me you're a flat earther too?
i am saying i doubt he wrote it singlehandedly
Yeah, GCC was the very first GNU software he wrote after he quit the lab.
After a while people joined in.
how many people did GNU Foundation start with before GCC released
Anyone have that parkland meme with the no bang bang thing
Im seeing plenty of other names in the 1.37 source
Yes, that's not 1.0, nor pre-1.0 though.
Learn to count.
okay can you find me earliest known version's src
37 is greater than 0.
how is fighting gay marriage libertarian
way i see it is
you either remove marriage from state or you include it
especially if it is a secular country
I dont know how to use diffs yet, sorry
>To quote Michael Tiemann from Open Sources
```
The GNU compiler already supported dozens of host environments and over a dozen target architectures (I had written six of the ports myself ), making it one of the most widely ported compilers of its time. [...]

It's just a text file.
my bad
Because it was cheaper, in nineteen fucking eighty eight, to store and transfer a diff.
You can find GCC 0.9 there.

Plain and simple: Stallman thinks it's immoral to make people use nonfree software. He doesn't demand people or companies to make their software free, but he insists that vendors allow people to write their own software. At no point he says that nonfree software shouldn't exist. Even that all software should be free. The focus is functional software. Games aren't functional, although components of the game might be.
nobody is making anyone use software
