    @lxoliva issue is, can you trust a company to release new software under #GPL given widespread abuse of GPL by proprietary relicensors

    @fontana thanks. from that, I infer there were other contenders to such a standard, but OpenShift sounded unique to me. what did I miss?

    @cwebber yeah it would have been something more like #AGPL + additional permissions. Pwnage problem though, MediaGoblin not enough.

    Btw, I thought "APLv2" meant Apache License v2 but that's probably wrong. I blame @evan or my misreading of http://ur1.ca/954rj

    @lxolivia OpenShift involves deployment scripts and etc right? LAGPL might make more sense, but AGPL might require releasing system scripts?

    @lxoliva Comes down to an issue of trust. You ex- #Cygnus employees don't understand this issue, I have found.

    @lxoliva RHT desires #OpenShift Origin to become basis of standard free sw PaaS implementation. FSF has recommended ALv2 for this purpose.

#Freesoftware

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."
