    How do we ensure that women have a voice in the #FreeSoftware community? Marina Zhurakhinskaya just wrapped up her excellent talk about some of the most successful efforts to increase diversity. One important take-home message: don't just have a code of conduct -- enforce it!

    Some common sense from the #libreplanet session on college students and #FreeSoftware : be a mentor, and be kind to newbies! Positive, nurturing experiences will keep newer folks in the community.

Primary audience

all, free software advocates, Linux users

Definition

Free software or software libre is software that guarantees the freedom to be used, studied, and modified without restriction, and the freedom to be copied and redistributed in modified or unmodified form either without restriction, or with minimal restrictions only to ensure that further recipients can also do these things and that manufacturers of consumer-facing hardware allow user modifications to their hardware. Free software in most cases is also available gratis (free of charge). However the focus of the term "free" is on freedom. R. Stallman summarised the difference in a slogan: "Think free as in free speech, not free beer."
