+ One Man's Fight for Free Software</a>, an article about Richard
+ Stallman and the early GNU development, published at <cite>The
+ New York Times</cite> on January 11, 1989. One problem with the
+ article is that it uses the propaganda term &ldquo;intellectual
+ property&rdquo; as if that referred to something coherent. The
+ term is such a confusion that talking about it <a
+ href="/philosophy/not-ipr.html">makes no sense</a>. The article
+ is also somewhat confused in regard to Symbolics. What Stallman
+ did, while still working at MIT, was to write, independently,
+ replacement improvements comparable to the improvements that
+ Symbolics made in its version of the MIT Lisp Machine
+ System.</li>

+
+<p>Here are two postings that Stallman wrote for a bulletin board at
+Stanford while he was visiting there in May, 1983. They show some of
+his thinking on the way towards launching the development of the GNU
+system. They don't use the term &ldquo;free software&rdquo;;
+apparently he had not yet started to put those two words together.</p>
