Фондация за свободен софтуер (ФСС)</title>
+

+
+<h2>Първоначално обявление</h2>
+
+<p> Това е оригиналното обявление на 
проекта GNU, написано от <a 
+href="http://www.stallman.org/";>Ричард Столман</a> на 27 
септември 1983 г.</p>
+
+<p> Историята на проекта GNU се различава 
доста от този първоначален план.  
+Например, началото бе отложено до януари 
1984 г., и някои от подробностите 
+относно понятието <a 
href="/philosophy/free-sw.bg.html">свободен софтуер</a> 
+не са били уточнени.</p>
+
+<h3>Свободен „Юникс“!</h3>
+
+<p>Започвайки от този Ден на 
благодарността, ще напиша цялостна 
софтуерна 
+система, съвместима с „Юникс“, наречена GNU 
(от GNU's Not Unix — GNU не е 
+„Юникс“), и ще я предоставя свободно<a 
href="#f1">(1)</a> на всеки, който 
+може да я използва.  Съдействие под формата 
на време, пари, програми и 
+оборудване е много необходимо.</p>
+
+<p>Като начало, GNU ще бъде ядро плюс всички 
инструменти, необходими за писане 
+и изпълняване на програми на Си: редактор, 
обвивка, компилатор на Си, 
+свързваща програма, асемблер и още някои 
неща.  След това ще добавим 
+програма за форматиране на текст, YACC<a 
+href="#TransNote1"><sup>1</sup></a>, игра „Empire“, 
електронна таблица и 
+стотици други неща.  Надяваме се 
евентуално да осигурим всичко полезно, 
+което нормално идва с една система 
„Юникс“, и всичко останало — включително 
+документация в софтуерна и печатна 
форма.</p>
+
+<p>Върху GNU ще може да се изпълняват 
програми на „Юникс“, но системата няма да 
+е идентична с „Юникс“.  Ще направим 
подобрения които са удобни, на базата на 
+нашия опит с други операционни системи.  
По-точно, планираме да имаме дълги 
+имена на файлове, версии на файловете, 
устойчива на сривове файлова система, 
+може би автоматично допълване на файлове, 
поддръжка на екрани независимо от 
+терминала и евентуално система с прозорци, 
базирана на Лисп, чрез която 
+няколко програми на Лисп и обикновени 
програми на „Юникс“ да споделят 
+екран.  Си и Лисп ще бъдат налични като 
системни езици за програмиране.  Ще 
+имаме мрежов софтуер, базиран на протокола 
на МИТ „chaosnet“, далеч 
+превъзхождащ UUCP.  Може също да имаме и нещо 
съвместимо с UUCP.</p>
+
+
+<h3>Кой съм аз?</h3>
+
+<p>Аз съм Ричард Столман, изобретател на 
оригиналния доста имитиран редактор 
+EMACS, сега в Лабораторията по изкуствен 
интелект към МИТ.  Работил съм 
+интензивно върху компилатори, редактори, 
програми за изчистване на грешки, 
+командни интерпретатори, „Incompatible Timesharing 
System<a 
+href="#TransNote2"><sup>2</sup></a>“ и операционната 
система „Lisp 
+Machine“.  Реализирал съм една надеждна 
файлова система и две прозоречни 
+системи за машини на Лисп.</p>
+
+<h3>Защо трябва да напиша GNU</h3>
+
+<p>Считам, че златното правило изисква ако 
харесвам една програма, да трябва да 
+я споделя с останалите, които я харесват.  
Не мога с чиста съвест да подпиша 
+споразумение за неразкриване или лицензно 
споразумение за софтуер.</p>
+
+<p>За да мога да продължа да използвам 
компютри без да нарушавам принципите си, 
+аз реших да направя колекция от свободен 
софтуер с достатъчно голям размер, 
+така че да мога да живея без да прибягвам 
до софтуер, който не е свободен.</p>
+
+
+<h3>Как може да допринесете</h3>
+
+<p>Моля производителите на компютри за 
дарения на машини и пари.  Моля 
+отделните хора за дарения на програми и 
работа.</p>
+
+<p>Един компютърен производител вече 
предложи да осигури машина.  Но ние бихме 
+могли да използваме повече.  Ако дарите 
машини, едно от последствията, които 
+може да очаквате, е че те ще работят с GNU 
съвсем отрано.  Би било добре 
+машината да може да функционира в жилищно 
помещение<a 
+href="#TransNote3"><sup>3</sup></a> и да не изисква сложно 
охлаждане или 
+захранване.</p>
+
+<p>Индивидуалните програмисти могат да 
допринесат, като напишат съвместим 
+дубликат на някой от инструментите на 
„Юникс“ и ми го предоставят.  За 
+повечето проекти, такава частична и 
разпределена работа би била изключително 
+трудна за координация — независимо 
написаните части не биха работили 
+заедно.  Но за специфичната задача за 
замяната на „Юникс“ този проблем не 
+съществува.  Повечето спецификации за 
интерфейси са фиксирани за 
+съвместимост с „Юникс“.  Ако всяка 
допринесена програма работи с останалата 
+част на „Юникс“, тя най-вероятно ще работи 
и с останалата част на GNU.</p>
+
+<p>Ако получа парични дарения, ще мога да 
наема няколко души на пълен или 
+непълен работен ден.  Заплатата няма да е 
висока, но аз ще търся хора, за 
+които чувството, че помагат на 
човечеството е също толкова важно, колкото 
и 
+парите.  Виждам това като начин да се 
позволи на посветените хора да отдадат 
+пълната си енергия за работа върху GNU, като 
им се спести нуждата да си 
+изкарват хляба по някакъв друг начин.</p>

+Тема: new Unix implementation
+Дата: Tue, 27-Sep-83 12:35:59 EST
+Организация: MIT AI Lab, Cambridge, MA
+
+Free Unix!
+
+Starting this Thanksgiving I am going to write a complete
+Unix-compatible software system called GNU (for Gnu's Not Unix), and
+give it away free<a href="#f1">(1)</a> to everyone who can use it.
+Contributions of time, money, programs and equipment are greatly
+needed.
+
+To begin with, GNU will be a kernel plus all the utilities needed to
+write and run C programs: editor, shell, C compiler, linker,
+assembler, and a few other things.  After this we will add a text
+formatter, a YACC, an Empire game, a spreadsheet, and hundreds of
+other things.  We hope to supply, eventually, everything useful that
+normally comes with a Unix system, and anything else useful, including
+on-line and hardcopy documentation.
+
+GNU will be able to run Unix programs, but will not be identical
+to Unix.  We will make all improvements that are convenient, based
+on our experience with other operating systems.  In particular,
+we plan to have longer filenames, file version numbers, a crashproof
+file system, filename completion perhaps, terminal-independent
+display support, and eventually a Lisp-based window system through
+which several Lisp programs and ordinary Unix programs can share a screen.
+Both C and Lisp will be available as system programming languages.
+We will have network software based on MIT's chaosnet protocol,
+far superior to UUCP.  We may also have something compatible
+with UUCP.
+
+
+Who Am I?
+
+I am Richard Stallman, inventor of the original much-imitated EMACS
+editor, now at the Artificial Intelligence Lab at MIT.  I have worked
+extensively on compilers, editors, debuggers, command interpreters, the
+Incompatible Timesharing System and the Lisp Machine operating system.
+I pioneered terminal-independent display support in ITS.  In addition I
+have implemented one crashproof file system and two window systems for
+Lisp machines.
+
+
+Why I Must Write GNU
+
+I consider that the golden rule requires that if I like a program I
+must share it with other people who like it.  I cannot in good
+conscience sign a nondisclosure agreement or a software license
+agreement.
+
+So that I can continue to use computers without violating my principles,
+I have decided to put together a sufficient body of free software so that
+I will be able to get along without any software that is not free.
+
+
+How You Can Contribute
+
+I am asking computer manufacturers for donations of machines and money.
+I'm asking individuals for donations of programs and work.
+
+One computer manufacturer has already offered to provide a machine.  But
+we could use more.  One consequence you can expect if you donate
+machines is that GNU will run on them at an early date.  The machine had
+better be able to operate in a residential area, and not require
+sophisticated cooling or power.
+
+Individual programmers can contribute by writing a compatible duplicate
+of some Unix utility and giving it to me.  For most projects, such
+part-time distributed work would be very hard to coordinate; the
+independently-written parts would not work together.  But for the
+particular task of replacing Unix, this problem is absent.  Most
+interface specifications are fixed by Unix compatibility.  If each
+contribution works with the rest of Unix, it will probably work
+with the rest of GNU.
+
+If I get donations of money, I may be able to hire a few people full or
+part time.  The salary won't be high, but I'm looking for people for
+whom knowing they are helping humanity is as important as money.  I view
+this as a way of enabling dedicated people to devote their full energies to
+working on GNU by sparing them the need to make a living in another way.
+

+<b>Бележки на преводача</b>:
+<ol>
+
+<li id="TransNote1">YACC е абревиатура на „Yet Another Compiler
+Compiler“, парсър-генератора на „Юникс“.  
Свободният заместител на GNU
+се нарича <a href="/software/bison/">Bison</a> — 
смехотворна аналогия
+между животните „як“ и „бизон“.</li>
+
+<li id="TransNote2">ITS, или „Несъвместима 
време-споделяща система“ е
+операционна система за компютри PDP-11, 
разработена от МИТ за
+собствени нужди.  Ричард Столман активно е 
участвал в разработката и
+усъвършенстването ѝ наред с други хакери 
от Лабораторията по изкуствен
+интелект към МИТ.</li>
+
+<li id="TransNote3">В началото на 80-те години 
повечето компютри са

са изисквали специално
+помещение и поддръжка.</li>
+
+<li id="TransNote4">На англ. език използваният 
израз е „give it away
+free“, което може да се тълкува като 
„отдаване безплатно“, тъй като
+„free“ на английски език означава както 
„свободен“, така и
+„безплатен“.  В българския език това 
двусмислие не съществува.</li>

+<h2>Initial Announcement</h2>
+
+<p> This is the original announcement of the GNU Project, written by
+<a href="http://www.stallman.org/";>Richard Stallman</a> on September
+27th 1983.</p>
+
+<p> The history of the GNU Project is in many ways different from this
+initial plan. For example, the beginning was delayed until January,
+1984 and several of the details about <a
+href="/philosophy/free-sw.html">free software</a> had not yet been
+clarified.</p>
+
+<h3>Free Unix!</h3>
+

+
+<p>The wording here was careless.  The intention was that nobody would
+have to pay for <b>permission</b> to use the GNU system.  But the
+words don't make this clear, and people often interpret them as saying
+that copies of GNU should always be distributed at little or no
+charge.  That was never the intent.</p>

+which several Lisp programs and ordinary Unix programs can share a screen.
+Both C and Lisp will be available as system programming languages.
+We will have network software based on MIT's chaosnet protocol,
+far superior to UUCP.  We may also have something compatible
+with UUCP.
+
+
+Who Am I?
+
+I am Richard Stallman, inventor of the original much-imitated EMACS
+editor, now at the Artificial Intelligence Lab at MIT.  I have worked
+extensively on compilers, editors, debuggers, command interpreters, the
+Incompatible Timesharing System and the Lisp Machine operating system.
+I pioneered terminal-independent display support in ITS.  In addition I
+have implemented one crashproof file system and two window systems for
+Lisp machines.
+
+
+Why I Must Write GNU
+
+I consider that the golden rule requires that if I like a program I
+must share it with other people who like it.  I cannot in good
+conscience sign a nondisclosure agreement or a software license
+agreement.
+
+So that I can continue to use computers without violating my principles,
+I have decided to put together a sufficient body of free software so that
+I will be able to get along without any software that is not free.
+
+
+How You Can Contribute
+
+I am asking computer manufacturers for donations of machines and money.
+I'm asking individuals for donations of programs and work.
+
+One computer manufacturer has already offered to provide a machine.  But
+we could use more.  One consequence you can expect if you donate
+machines is that GNU will run on them at an early date.  The machine had
+better be able to operate in a residential area, and not require
+sophisticated cooling or power.
+
+Individual programmers can contribute by writing a compatible duplicate
+of some Unix utility and giving it to me.  For most projects, such
+part-time distributed work would be very hard to coordinate; the
+independently-written parts would not work together.  But for the
+particular task of replacing Unix, this problem is absent.  Most
+interface specifications are fixed by Unix compatibility.  If each
+contribution works with the rest of Unix, it will probably work
+with the rest of GNU.
+
+If I get donations of money, I may be able to hire a few people full or
+part time.  The salary won't be high, but I'm looking for people for
+whom knowing they are helping humanity is as important as money.  I view
+this as a way of enabling dedicated people to devote their full energies to
+working on GNU by sparing them the need to make a living in another way.
