This is a great question and I'm interested in knowing if there are

I was checking out the libreplanet article on wikipedia and it could use
some work: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LibrePlanet
are there any "mainstream" articles that refer to libreplanet? I'm sure the
latest conference has some mainstream news articles since it featured
Edward Snowden
It seems more than two people are in agreement with what should be done.
Someone should start or add on to a wiki page on Libreplanet wiki if these
actions are the right thing to do. It would be nice to have the above
collected discussion in a publicly accessible space

Hi Felix,
I would recommend looking at the LibrePlanet Ontario group wiki page as it
has some ideas on projects:

blicity to your idea. Not everyone
is on the mailing list and it can harder to gather volunteers for a project
when there's no wiki page for it.

I like open source because it gives a wedge and a place to start having
discussions about why vendor lock-in is bad and why freedom for users and
developers matters.

As I said many months ago which prompted me to start a blog about libre

So I'm wondering which companies are out there that do free/libre

This definitely sounds doable and might revitalize the GNU standards. The
key thing is convincing other GNU developers to contribute if possible. It
would be nice to see more developers referring to the coding standards of
the gnu project and striving to become part of the umbrella.

Indeed, I was considering doing this for companies. There are many
companies that force you to use proprietary software and it would be great
for people to know this before they apply. If I had known how much

The trickiest part is that those services run mainly on free software. It's
the end result that is proprietary and the only way around them is to
promote (and improve) any alternatives that use the agpl license.
