Are we talking about the death of GNU (the Operating System), or the
death of the FSF? :^)
If we're talking about the FSF, I think it's healthier than ever right
now. The GPLv3 is looking good, they're trying new approaches to getting
their message out (activism/education campaigns), and I'm noticing more
and more news and discussion about Free software issues.
