Re: [Trisquel-users] will you distribute information about lowrisc, an open source cpu beeing made?

I think if LowRISC computers were available for sale, and they were  
freedom-respecting computers, then many people here would purchase one in a  
heartbeat.
However, since we are discussing computer architectures that have not been  
widely implemented, if at all, it is more desirable to pick a standard that  
has a stronger stance in forcing modifications to the architecture to be  
released.
Otherwise we have a situation like Android: everyone will pick a mobile  
computer running Android over one running a completely proprietary operating  
system, but Android's pushover license means that almost all implementations  
of Android are proprietary.
