[Trisquel-users] Re : beagleboardblack fully free software?

It's like saying we have something that respects your freedom, but it's not  
perfect, until something better comes along we will say it does then we  
discard it. I know they are not being "rude" to these projects, but it's  
kinda the message I see in there.

It is not. The message is "do the best you can". Companies like MiniFree and  
ThinkPenguin love the RYF label. It is great advertisement. Today the best we  
can in terms of laptop is not perfect. Whenever a new piece o firmware can be  
freed (including by people selling RYF hardware and who want to supersede  
their competitors), every vendor will have to follow this freedom path to not  
lose the certification. In the end, the RYF program is a great incentive for  
increasingly freedom-respecting hardware.
