I think this:

    The Free Software Foundation has had the problem that their
    leader, Richard M. Stallman (commonly known as ``RMS'') appear
    to think that they ought to have control over the entire body of
    free/GPL (GNU Public License) software. Ignoring the
    consideration that others may not want to be so controlled, they
    simply don't have enough staff to manage all of the projects that
    are active.

is rather unfair.  I cannot believe that Richard Stallman nor FSF want to
control the entire body of GPL'd software.  Instead, I think they have some
software that they do happen to "control" (in so far that one can control
public domain software in the form of the GNU Public License) and mainly
ignore the rest.

Is there a quote that you saw from Richard Stallman that particularly lead
you to the above conclusion?

P.S. BTW, your Linux pages are great in that they are very extensive.
