You can't argue that unless you mean to argue that software freedom 0 is the same as software freedom 1. > I don't intend to force you into making such a statement.

However, freedom 0 is not about "use" but about "running". "Use" is too generic. For an user, "use" means running. For a programmer, "use" may mean incorporating code (library or copy & paste). That may be the basis for so much ado about nothing. Not understanding what the terms mean. Rui
