Onderwerp: [DNG] Interesting read from RMS
Interesting article from Richard Stallman.

https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/applying-free-sw-criteria.html

It starts with:

*"For a software package to be free, all the code in it must be free. But
not only the code. Since documentation files including manuals, README,
change log, and so on are essential technical parts of a software package,
they must be free as well."*

And concludes with:

*"As new situations arise, the GNU Project and the Free Software Foundation
will adapt our freedom criteria so as to lead computer users towards
freedom, in practice and in principle."*

Maybe RSM has some concern about Red Hat, systemd and the new idea of
"freedom of code vs. freedom of developers"?

Cheers,
Emiliano.
