This is probably a controversial idea. But I got no discussion. What do you think? I am thinking the only proper way to use the web is by 1) warning the user when they're about to open a page whose markup or content is non-free (there are licence attribute for this in the standard) and 2) providing easy means to re-publish (distribute) those web pages which are free, such as by writing a gnunet addon for Firefox which provides publishing facilities (as well as search facilities to search for useful web pages in your peers' gnunet directories). Both these tasks appear to lie within the IceCat project. -- Svetlana A. Tkachenko Member of the Free Software Foundation www.fsf.org www.gnu.org www.freenode.net -- http://gnuzilla.gnu.org
