You can disagree with what RMS says of course, is the attitude that makes people tired, in the sentence here above you are not criticizing a point of you that you might not like, you are just being a smart ass thinking wow I'm fighting Mr. Stallman what a hero.

In case anyone's keeping score. Please note that I haven't called anyone names. You are right, please accept my apologies for the personal attack, I should'n have done that. Apologies also to the list for the wreck of the thread, and in particular to Dave which will have to reboot again the interesting thread. Back in the cage.

Re: [guadec-list] Re-considering expectnation web service

The software that runs Expectnation have just one user, the company tha runs the site, which also have full rights on that sotware. If the statment above is correct means that the company (the only one that has a copy of the software) also _has_ the four freedoms, this means that _it is_ free software in a trivial way. Sorry about the noise of my previous message. cheers -- Gian Mario Tagliaretti ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list

Open sourcing is a possibility for the future, but it's not likely to happen in 2008. Is expectnation then more or less as proprietary as the software powering Sourceforge, Launchpad, the Google or Yahoo! services? Fine with me, As stated by Edd _it is proprietary_ right now. specially if it's good and by using it we might be helping Edd getting a sustainable business model and eventually opensourcing it. Shouldn't that be the other way around? First the product should be open and then Gnome should adopt it and help Edd with the business. GUADEC organizers need to concentrate in the event organization and the content and communication. This is complex enough. Developing conference software is out of scope. The website itself shouldn't bring much time nor hassle. While for sure the event organization is complex, Gnome is all about free software isn't it? Edd wrote: if Expectnation settles on a business model that will accommodate our code being open sourced, we'd love to do that. I guess Gnome people would love it as well and probably use the service without any doubt. As Jeff said it would be akward (I would say a shame instead) to use non-Free software where Free software can be used. just my 0.02€ cheers -- Gian Mario Tagliaretti ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
