Re: [Trisquel-users] How to prevent users from editing my wiki pages

[myself600]

f.lux, the main program, is proprietary (the xflux executable, which is a  
command-line tool, doesn't have the source code released). The f.lux GUI tool  
is on the other hand released under the MIT/Expat license, which is a  
FSF-approved free software license. Now the confusion is that the author of  
the GUI (Kilian Valkhof) does not state in the license that the xflux binary,  
which is bundled within the GUI, isn't free (take look at this bug report).  
Therefore I was fooled that the application is free software. After I  
discovered this, I removed f.lux from all related pages, and replaced it with  
a FLOSS alternative (Redshift). But this isn't the issue I'm trying to solve  
here.

As for emulators, leny2010 asked questions related to them, and I kindly  
answered them. This is not meant as a discussion about the contents of the  
affected page(s), but when asked... you understand, right? I agree that using  
emulators isn't a good thing, and I doesn't recommend to do that to anybody.  
I have them installed on my computer but doesn't really use them, since I  
doesn't play games (it's ). Trisquel contains various emulators (for  
NES/SNES, Atari 2600, GameBoy, etc.) which are practically only useful for  
playing non-free games, yet it doesn't recommend to use them. I think using  
some non-free program/game on Trisquel do less harm for the user that require  
to use them, than doing that on a fully-proprietary system. Although I would  
like to see all people rejecting any proprietary software, I cannot force  
them not to use them, so I rather provide a way for them to do it in a free  
environment.
