At pleasure has a negative connotation in English, meaning that you do
the bidding of someone else.  This is simply not true in the
relationship between the FSF and the GNU project, and has never been
the csae.

So what you say is a gross misinterpretation, the FSF does not dictate
anything regarding the nature of the GNU project and was created long
after the GNU project was started as a means to safe guard our
interests.

So while they provide infrastructure, and legal advice, etc, it is for
our needs.  They do not do any type of oversight, or anything similar
that we follow the software freedom mission.  That falls on the
responsibility of the Chief GNUisance.
