Let me just say that I've read the relevant page on the FSF site, and
I support what it says, but I still think ostracizing the word "cloud"
in _any_ computing-related discussion is too extreme, and may even
"cloud" the minds of some of our followers. And if you don't agree,
then let's agree to disagree on that.
