I was expecting at least one or two emails to fsfe-uk about yesterday's 
scandal but perhaps no-one else has seen it:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/3457823.stm

There was a big noise (1000+ posts) made about it on /. too:

article.pl?sid=04/02/05/0818229&mode=thread&tid=106&tid=185&tid=187&tid=88&threshold=0

_Lots_ of people complained to the BBC and we all received a brush-off 
response from the editor. The offending article is still there in both the 
technology and business sections. I know some of the people that post in here 
run businesses based on free software/open source/GNU/Linux and I wonder if 
you are as outraged as many others have been? Has the BBC gone too far this 
time? Does anyone know how to make some kind of formal complaint? - someone 
on /. mentioned the Press Complaints Commission but apparently they are only 
for newspapers and magazines.

Paul.
