Re: [LUG] What is the purpose of free software ?
On 28/01/07, Tom Brough <

My interpretation is that free software exists to ensure that availability of functionality is universal and not constricted by money, copyright, etc.
The open-source development and distribution model, especially the GPL, work very nicely with the free software idea but are not the same thing.

Mi admiras religiajn; ili estas fine ebliĝinta solvi la maljunegan demandon "kiel oni povas vivi sencerbe?".
It is well-known that I am blunt and unsophisticated. It's largely your fault if you object to this.
