GNU radio has a nice website, and organization. I cannot find the documentation license on the documentation pages. I am in Tanzania, and waiting for cdnjs.cloudflare.com is taking terribly long time, like minutes, so with the "normal browser" I cannot even access the website. I am trying to find out why. If I don't use "normal browser", but use Dillo or Elinks, I can access the website, with limitation to "javascript" links. I would like to add a friendly reminder, that when GNU radio is advertised as "free & open source", it is creating a confusion of what free software is, it may give to people an idea that it is "free of charge" in addition of being "open source". You also have on the front page, quoting: http://gnuradio.org/ "Free Software - GNU Radio is Free Software. That means it’s free as in price, and you are free to use & modify it as you wish." -- end of quote May I correct you? It does not mean that it is "free as in price", there is some serious lack of understanding what free software means. It is free as in liberty. In fact my Wordnet dictionary over here shows the first definition of free as "(38) free -- (able to act at will; not hampered; not under compulsion or restraint; "free enterprise"; "a free port"; "a free country"; "I have an hour free"; "free will"; "free of racism"; "feel free to stay as long as you wish"; "a free choice")" and in the third definition "complimentary, costless, free, gratis, gratuitous -- (costing nothing; "complimentary tickets"; "free admission")". The Free Software is free as in the first definition, in regards to constraints, in regards to liberty of what one may do with the software. Not in regards to pricing or charges for software. While it just happens that is often distributed "free of charge" the words free do not refer to priceless, or free of charge. There is nothing wrong in selling free software. The first Deluxe Distribution of GNU software were sold for nice US $5,000, the compiled binaries on the CD with all the software. References: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.html It is unclear from the website under which license the documentation has been published, I could not find it. I can see that everything is copyright to GNU radio foundation, with "all rights reserved". Somebody may wrongly understand the licensing and think that "all rights reserved", also apply to documentation. The website is well organized, only not well functionable, at least from here in Tanzania, it is "loading" all the time. I hope to get the required dongle to try it out. Jean Louis
