Follow-up Comment #3, task #15036 (project administration): > I specified that it is both Free and Open Source. I write this because users often confuse Free Software with Freeware, and this is the only way to let people know in a certain way that they can also download the source code.
No, it isn't the only way. If you think there is a dangerously high risk of confusion, you can explain in a few words that free software is about freedom rather than cost, and link to the Free Software Definition. Just downloading the source code is not the freedom we care of, we want all the four freedoms. > The README / LEGGIMI.txt files clearly wrote: "You can distribute and keep this note freely with the program" Hmm. I'm sorry, I missed that. The files still lack copyright notices, and these distribution terms are not free: they don't allow modification, and in the context of copyright anything is forbidden unless explicitly permitted. If you'd like to license these files permissively, you could use the license recommended by GNU Maintainer documentation <https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/License-Notices-for-Other-Files.html>. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/task/?15036> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
