It sounds that way. I know you only from this discussion, which started around a week ago. But I do know the basis for the FSF's decisions about RYF certification. We drew up a set of criteria, more than ten years ago. The FSF simply implements those criteria. There is nothing persona about it. If you make and sell a hardware product which satisfies the criteria, the FSF will be willing to enorse it. But it will take time! At the moment, the FSF has just one staff person handling all sorts of licensing, We have been backlogged in that whole area. We need to hire one person more, perhaps even two. -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org) _______________________________________________ libreplanet-discuss mailing list libreplanet-discuss@libreplanet.org https://lists.libreplanet.org/mailman/listinfo/libreplanet-discuss
