When free software is created it normally does fit into various standards and various operating systems, and free software may run on many versions of Windows, UNIX, and UNIX-licensed proprietary systems, not only on FreeBSD and BSD versions of UNIX, not only on Linux based systems, and so on. Users are supported in running free software no matter what underlying operating system is. If software runs exclusively on proprietary system, then such IMHO is not endorsed by GNU Project. You got it right. Maybe you should find appropriate mailing list on GNU project, as Libreplanet is FSF's mailing list: GNU Mailing Lists https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/ Maybe GNU Misc Discuss is for that question more appropriate.
