I do not see a need to change the FSDG, unless they are to be designed to approve distributions such as Debian. The freedom to choose is only real freedom if the options are free. If the FSDG are changed to trick the user into thinking that if is free by choosing nonfree software, they do not support the user at all. The real option is that Guix server downloads the upstream sourcces and then the host the sources with only with free software for its users. Otherwise, it is as free as any other distro because users can remove nonfree software from any distro.

The policy is what is in discussion and has not called for the questioned parties to argue against the case makers. The FSF is the one which should make the calls for freedom, which is what free software is made to give users. The questioned parties should find consensus instead of trying to make more division with this type of attitude.
[GNU-linux-libre] ungoogled chromium reported in Guix and unremoved after 8 months
This is a report I have received from some GNU libre distro hackers: *** Chromium/webengine/electron issue It is not reasonable to assume that some program is free software merely because someone adds a licence to the root dir. - the person who adds that license also needs to have the right to do so as the copyright holder, and permission to do so from the holders of all other copyrighted parts. Chromium is an aggregate of hundreds of projects written by probably thousands of authors - the vast majority of which are not on the chromium dev team - the main case for concern is that its own developers are not certain about the copyrights of all of its parts, as demonstrated by the 10 year old bug report that was never closed The codebase is 3-4 GB large and no one knows - that alone is a real problem for any codebase to become such size that no one wants to audit it - it is much the same situation as Linux; except that the linux-Libre team diligently removes anything non-free that enters the codebase upstream. No one is doing that for chromium - its not what ungoogled team cares about. But, IMHO there is now a more concerning issue related to it mess this has been discussed at length on the FSDH mailing list over the years and the consensus was that it was not fit for any FSDG - and all FSDG that still had it, removed it. But, about six months ago Guix decided they would add it, and they completely disregarded the concerns of the FSDG group answering essentially no more than "I dont see a problem - we are adding it anyways". That created a very uncomforable problem in the FSDG community - one of the criteria for the new FSDG review process would prevent any new distro from being endorsed if it had Chromium - ppl repeaedly asked the Guix team to help resolve that by offering a satisfying liberation procedure; so that every FSDG could add Chromium is they wanted it. *** This the bug report in Guix: http://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/34565 This is the analysis of Chromium Ungoogled and Chromium by Hyperbola: https://wiki.hyperbola.info/doku.php?id=en:main:chromiums_freedom_flaws I would like the FSF to take a stance on this immediately.

These emails are the comunications I have established with the developers of Frostwire, a very good P2P software included in Trisquel. ---BeginMessage--- yes, selling frostwire is not a scam, but sites like frostwire10.com and others are using our trademarked logo without our permission. Users come to their websites thinking they're us, they get charged for money, they get a loads of spyware installed and then we are the ones that get the blame. We'll re-word our warning and write a clarifying post. Selling FrostWire is ok per allowed by the GPL, we know that. What's illegal here is the miss use of our trademark. They can sell it, they can do support, they can do all they want with their software, but they have to say who they are, they cannot impersonate the identity of our company and a brand that's take a lot of hard work to build.

Re: [GNU-linux-libre] Request for Endorsement for ConnochaetOS
supporters. This aren't open source people, because they even rejected the term open source. We shouldn't accuse people who are using the term open source to be against software freedom and as such be enemies of software freedom, because that wouldn't do justice to them. There is no acusation. It is just a valuation of the situation from my personal point of view. In life, a generalization makes better decisions if care is to be taken to consider that there are some exceptions. I do not hold anything against people. I just have my own values and disagree with opensource which accepts nonfree software. I am in favor of free software which is against nonfree software and not against people. I value people. -- Quiliro Ordóñez 09 821 8696 02 340 1517 No se puede sacrificar la libertad por ningún bien, por ninguna promesa de pan o de paz o de justicia, porque ese pan tendría amargura de veneno, esa paz sería de muerte, y esa justicia no sería justicia humana ni tendría sentido.

Re: [GNU-linux-libre] Request for Endorsement for ConnochaetOS
Dear Henry Jensen: I find that your misunderstanding is because the permanent opensource position to minimize our position which has made many people believe that we just want to fight over non trascendental issues. It is an important issue for us and if we are to work together with open source, the first step is that they recognize we do not have the same values as they do but that we can collaborate. We understand their position but they do not understand ours. I beleive FSFE has to define if they agree with FSF or OSI. Maybe Richard Stallman's position in reply to Karsten Gerloff (president of FSFE) will show you what is the position of FSF. On 31/08/11 08:02, Richard Stallman wrote: Please stop telling people that free software is another name for open source! From our point of view, Open Source Software and Free Software are just two different names for the same thing, with the names (and the people who use them) having a focus on different aspects. That's not a point of view, it is just a mistake. It isn't true, and it undermines our efforts to teach people where we stand. This doesn't sound so different from a statement by Richard on November 17, 2008: Free software and open source are the names of two different political viewpoints within the free software community - the community built by the free software movement. You seem to have got my meaning 180 degrees wrong. I did not say they are the same -- quite the contrary, I said they are two different political viewpoints. I could have said opposing political viewpoints, but I was trying to be gentle about it, following your advice. Sometimes I say they are political parties, because free software and open source are analogous to political parties that disagree on basic issues. Green and Democratic are two political camps in the US. Does that mean they are two names for the same country? No, neither one is a name for the country. Each one is the name of a party. Likewise, free software is the name of one party, and open source is the name of another party. These two parties disagree about What's this all about? Do you follow? Thus far I've explained how these two are different. Now to turn to strategy: here's why it is vital to show people they are different. If you go around saying Green and Democratic are the same thing, you would do the Green Party tremendous damage. Likewise, saying that free software and open source are the same thing does the Free Software Movement tremendous damage. The main point we try to communicate people is Insist on freedom in your software. The open source camp rejects that. They outnumber us; everyone in our community has heard their views. And everyone in our community tends to assume we share those views. And they will keep assuming this until we stand in front of them and shout: NO we do NOT agree with the open source views you have heard!!! This is something DIFFERENT -- VERY DEEPLY different!!! Some people need this several times before they actually believe we are different from open source. Please do not tell them we are the same as open source. That works against our efforts. Since you think your statement was similar to mine, Free software and open source are the names of two different political viewpoints within the free software community - the community built by the free software movement. how about saying precisely that? It tells people what we need them to know, about the difference.

In general we can't bring confirmed open source supporters to our side; they won't change their stand. The people we can convince are the people who have not yet made up their minds. In order to win them over, we have to show them there is a choice for them to make. We have to show that we stand for something _different_ from the open source ideas that they hear from so many others. In my experience, that works. I don't insist you focus on telling people about this difference.

It is being discussed whether a free distribution may want to represent itself as Open Source. I think there is a misunderstanding. ConnochaetOS, as far as I as the maintainer can stand for it, represents itself explicitly as Free Software. However, I am not alone and there are people who help the project, especially in the forum by answering questions from users and doing some documentation in the wiki. They feel obligated to free software. But they may use sometimes wordings that may look unfortunate by some other people in the Free Software Community. This is how we came here. Now, there are some points that should be clarified: 1. The Free System Distribution Guidelines doesn't require to use or to avoid explicit wordings. It requires that a free distro must take care not to recommend nonfree software. The FSDG covers content of a free distros documentation, but there is no prescribed terminology. If I am mistaken, please correct me. If we use terminology that promotes the ideas of people that do not value freedom, we promote their ideas and not ours. Please consider that. 2. In the explicit case it is discussed if it is okay, if some members of a free distro use the term open source in its documentation. I had a discussion with a representative of the FSFE about this matter, and the FSFEs summarized point of view is We prefer the term free software, but if you say open source it is fine with us, because it is the same thing. So, from the FSFEs point of view there should be no problem. Richard said he is discussing this issue with FSFE. FSF does not support that position. In fact, FSF regards opensource software as something good but the opensource ideas as bad. It sounds contradictory but it isn't because some of what they do agrees with what we do but not all so the terms are not interchangeable. I myself see this matter a little more severe. I think the term free software should be used, and I correct wordings occasionally. But since many new users are involved and the community is growing I can't control every sentence they write. What's more: In a hypothetical discussion in our community about this issue, a member who uses the term open source can always refer to the FSFE and say Hey, the FSFE said, it is okay when I say open source. Since 90 percent of our community is living in Europe that would be a reasonable point and one could hardly argue against that. Please get an official written statement from FSFE stating that. It would clear up things for all of us.

The point is: If you seek FSFs endorsement for ConnochaetOS, I would think that you agree with their philisophy and not with OSI's http://osi.org I didn't mention OSI anywhere. Of course I support the free software philosophy. But I don't think it would be good to exclude open source activists or people who use the term open source instead of free software. There is no sharp boundary between those camps anyway. You do not mention them but propose the same things as they do. Freedom takes sacrifice. George W.

Re: [GNU-linux-libre] Request for Endorsement for ConnochaetOS
be far from off. The problem is, if you say, that a certain philosophy or idea is so evil as hunger and death you make the first step in spreading hatred. Saying something is not good does not imply hatred. Asking for rights and protesting for abuses was the way of Gandhi and he is know for peace. Not only towards that philosophy or idea but to the people who stand for it as well. The next person who hear you say, that a philosophy or an idea is so evil, may come to the conclusion that the people who are standing for this idea are evil as well and should be punished. I would not support that in any way. Evil people are not the same as bad actions. I do not beleive in punishment. I beleive in rights. Before you know it there will be hatred against other people, with all its consequences. Spreading hatred is always wrong, no matter for which cause. I agree. Asking for rights and protesting for abuses does not involve hatred but rather describes love for people and for their equal care. -- Quiliro Ordóñez 09 821 8696 02 340 1517 No se puede sacrificar la libertad por ningún bien, por ninguna promesa de pan o de paz o de justicia, porque ese pan tendría amargura de veneno, esa paz sería de muerte, y esa justicia no sería justicia humana ni tendría sentido.

Re: [GNU-linux-libre] Request for Endorsement for ConnochaetOS
At http://www.fsf.org/working-together/gang/ the FSF even endorses FreeBSD, which is known to have proprietary software in their ports. (personally I think, FreeBSD shouldn't be listed there. If they must list a BSD system it should be OpenBSD, which has, in contrast to FreeBSD, an explicit free software agenda). I don't see FreeBSD as an endorsed free OS. Will you please provide the link to report that bug? Possibly they are refering to its kernel which I beleive is free http://www.fsf.org/working-together/gang/freebsd . Nevertheless, it shouldn't be endoresed because it promotes non free software. -- Quiliro Ordóñez 09 821 8696 02 340 1517 No se puede sacrificar la libertad por ningún bien, por ninguna promesa de pan o de paz o de justicia, porque ese pan tendría amargura de veneno, esa paz sería de muerte, y esa justicia no sería justicia humana ni tendría sentido.

[GNU-linux-libre] Arrested
Friends- Breaking news: Demand Progress has obtained documents that reveal a radical shift in how law enforcement is policing the Internet. Brian McCarthy ran a website that linked to various sites where you could watch online streams of TV shows and sports networks. A couple months ago, the government seized his domain name and on Friday they arrested him and charged him with criminal copyright infringement -- punishable by five years in prison. We just dug up the complaint, and you can view it here. Click here to tell the government that there's nothing illegal about linking to another website -- and that they need to drop the charges right away! http://act.demandprogress.org/sign/dhscomplaint/?referring_akid=.423296.Gm2XIosource=mailto The complaint reveals that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) don't even allege that McCarthy made a copy of anything! Just that his site linked to various sites with copyrighted material. Under that sort of thinking, everyone who's sent around a link to a copyrighted YouTube video is a criminal! This is another shocking overreach by DHS and ICE -- a steamship-era department that's proving once again that it doesn't understand the Internet. We need to push back -- and fast -- before they try to lock up more Americans. Will you click here to tell DHS and ICE to back off? http://act.demandprogress.org/sign/dhscomplaint/?referring_akid=.423296.Gm2XIosource=mailto Thanks for fighting back! -- Quiliro Ordóñez 09 821 8696 02 340 1517

Me parece que hizo preguntas que vale la pena responder, aunque el tono del hilo haya subido bastante. Normalmente en estas listas algo falsas de encontrar la verdad de la verdad y perder el tiempo en ello no son mas que un metodo de perder el tiempo. Pienso que todos los pasos para verificar si algo es libre no es pérdida de tiempo. Es la esencia del movimiento de software libre y es lo que Richard siempre hace. Para saber si un software es libre con leer la licencia alcanza. Debatir sobre la interpretacion de la licencia como si fuese algun libro antiguo no hace mas que molestar y no tiene sentido. No es por ahí que (al menos yo) se está yendo. Entiendo que el software contiene muchos archivos y que las licencias de cada uno pueden ser distintas. Luego cuando las cosas ya rayan el ridiculo. Como buscar lo que dice ubuntu de chromium en ves de buscar lo que dicen los autores de chromium, la salida es desviar hacia a atacar a algun grupo que suele tenersele algo de envidia y mucho de rabia. No está eso en la página de Ubuntu. Está en la de Chromium. Es aquí por ejemplo: http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/trunk/src/base/third_party/purify/pure.h?view=markup El punto es: ¿esto es libre? Lo pregunto porque no lo se. Quiero saber y no es para molestar. UTUTO cae en ese objetivo,porque no esta alineado, tiene su propia via y estudia, aprende, no abre debates sobre el sexo de los angeles El SL es un camino que puede mostrar algo de libertad. Pero esa libertad no es para el software, es para el humano que hace uso de este. Debatir si en el sitio de ubuntu, chromium dice unknow es perder el tiempo. No es por Ubuntu. Ubuntu como Linux, Chomium o miles de otros son fuentes de información a verificar. ¿Quizá lo que quieres decir es: Muestren cuáles son los archivos privativos que tiene Chromium?
