I'm not sure, all I know is that the DFSG (D for "Debian") still accepts
that, while the GNU FSDG (F for "FSF") doesn't.
Because it already has a free software browser (Abrowser) which Trisquel's
developer maintains (which includes removing suggestions of non-free add-ons,
removing DRM support, and providing a free add-on repository).
Making Iridium completely free would likely also require some work (such as
"GNU FSDG" stands for "GNU Free Software Distribution Guidelines". The
acronym has changed multiple times, but the "F" has never stood for "FSF".

Indeed, I'm sorry. I guess I missed the fact that I *personally* use/see
"F" as standing for "FSF". :D
I agree with aloniv on the point of avoiding DRM, the few books I looked at
on their site all say that they come with Adobe DRM. Opening epub however
shouldn't be an issue for e.g. fbreader.
The deletion of books RMS occasionally talks about refers to the Amazon

That's Icecat.
That's both Abrowser and IceCat.
Also, because there are still questions about whether the Iridium team have
successfully removed all proprietary code from upstream. See:

With ebooks, I don't have to buy Canadian, I think I will look for a
better supplier.

Do you have the package "gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly" installed?
Here, SoundConverter often outputs a "Gstreamer error" message that says
"Could not open resource for writing"... but it does the job anyway!
The problem seems to be particularly bad with .wma. I also have a bunch of
.m4a files I want to convert, and I was able to convert a test file to FLAC,
MP3, and Vorbis, but the UI was still buggy with MP3. The first time I hit
the 'convert' button it did nothing but create a message saying "c
I installed Trisquel 8 on my laptop. The two Blocking issues that I reported
are no longer a problem. I easily hooked up to hidden wifi without dhcp. And

installed. Nice new wallpaper too.
