Free Software Foundation Europe

Free as in Freedom

Dobrodošli na domači strani organizacije Free Software Foundation Evrope. FSFE je pričela s svojim delom 10 marca 2001 in podpira vse Evropske poglede na Prosto programje še posebno GNU projekt. Aktivno podpiramo razvoj Prostega programja in promocijo GNU-temelječih operacijskih sistemov kot naprimer GNU/Linux. Obenem tudi poskrbimo za center pomoči politikom, odvetnikom in novinarjem, z namenom, da poskrbimo za varno, legalno, politično in socialno prihodnost Prostega programja.

FSFE-jevo delo je mogoče zaradi veliko prispevkov posameznikov, še posebej zaradi Fellowship of FSFE. En način kako lahko vi pripomorete je, da se pridružite, tudi vi in spodbujate druge, da naredijo podobno.

Zadnje novice FSFE Newsletter 2008-07-08 Housekeeping items are the least popular of all tasks in any organisation, and any organisation that is working under pressure has a tendency of accumulating them. That is why after the intensive work of the past year to build up and grow the Freedom Task Force, work on antitrust and OOXML issues, and various other activities, FSFE had some of them as well. Fortunately, after substantial preparation and three intensive days, FSFE's General Assembly in June managed to take care of them and send everyone home highly motivated and with a full task list. The results of this will become slowly visible throughout the coming year.

However, the training wheels keep children from falling and give freedom to both the children and their parents. Likewise Wine helped to give freedom and security to the users. It is for this we are thankful and we recognise their work."

GPL-Violations.org and the FTF are now building the long-term legal infrastructure for support and compliance" comments Harald Welte. Shane Coughlan adds "I believe our new agreement will help ensure sustainability for legal infrastructure to support Free Software in Europe."

However, other important areas of focus were also under discussion around the world. [Preberi si več...] FSFE Newsletter 2008-04-16 It has been another busy month for software freedom. Open Standards have continued to dominate discussions in ICT with the MS-OOXML proposal being accepted by ISO as a standard. FSFE and numerous other parties have observed this process from the beginning and have reason to be concerned about the state of international standardisation.
