That's a worthy goal, and I'm glad someone is ready to tackle it.

If forking is your preferred solution, for what it's worth that's
totally fine by me. (I'm writing for what it's worth, because even
if the idea of such a fork was bothering me, the license we use to
publish our work gives you the freedom to fork anyway :)

Still, note that another option would be to work within the Tails
project to make it possible for users to choose to use Tails in
a DFSG/FSF-compatible way; ideas in this area have been floating
around for years, but I'm not aware of any serious research having
lead to practical conclusions, hence the status-quo. I guess that
going this way may be a little bit harder than a fork in the
beginning, but on the long run the time/energy required by maintenance
would be greatly decreased.

Anyway: in both cases, presumably you'll start by stating your goals
in more details. Once this is done, then we can see how doable it
would be to reach them within Tails itself = please consider pinging
us again once you've reached this milestone. Thanks in advance!

 could I request a copy of the TAILS source code and make the
 fork myself?

It's available online: https://tails.boum.org/contribute/git/

And if, in the end, you decide that starting a fork is really what you
need/want: good luck :)

Cheers,

No strong opinion but, as always, I'd be willing and available for the

[Tails-dev] Making a Fork of TAILS Without Non-Free Firmware

2015-06-06 Thread genghiskant

Hi all!

The community of TAILS users and developers would benefit from having a 
fork that abides by the Free Software Foundation's free system 
distribution guidelines.


Link for FSF's guidelines: 
[https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-system-distribution-guidelines.html]


Meeting those guidelines could earn the fork of TAILS a spot among the 
select few free distributions that the FSF endorses. That would surely 
bring TAILS some beneficial attention, new users and new developers.


What do you all think would be the best steps to take to achieve this 
goal? And if I'm alone in thinking that such an endeavor is worthwile, 
could I request a copy of the TAILS source code and make the fork 
myself?


Thank you for your time,
  Genghis Kant
