Re: Input on anticompetitive characteristic of public code
Hi, Le 21-06-2018 14:33, Erik Albers a écrit : Now my questions: * How can we oppose the argument that publicly financed software released as Free Software is anticompetitive? * What can we bring up on the other hand in favor of publishing as Free Software from a competitive point of view? (except the usual non-dependencies) They are asking to assure that people pay multiple times for the same work. This is not a question of competition but of getting a rent on something you have already being paid to do. And yes whenever a publicly financed software is released, it breaks some sort of undue windfall economy. It is not a problem, it is a feature. The anticompetitiveness is the fact that proprietary software does not allow all IT company to compete for providing support or new features. This is what Free Software assures. It is thus the opposite of anticompetitive.

Re: Anonymous Voting System
Hi all, Yes Reinhard there have been a lot of work on voting system in crypto those last years. ;) At the same time it is usually less easy to use. If you want a good solution (not for political elections ;) ) look at Helios. It is free software and state of the art for voting . In fact, it is the solution we use at the iacr (international association for cryptological research). Best, Cryptie -- Envoyé de mon appareil Android avec K-9 Mail.

Re: Help with gathering resources for how to learn programming for children book
Hi all, What do you think about adding scratch ? It is a great way for young kids to learn algorithmic and having something fun fast. We use it in my association with 5y.o. so they can start fast... BUT 1) They don't provide scratch 3.0 on GNU/Linux (it is installable but it requires a parent able to find and follow a command-line tutorial to install it or you can use one of the website providing it and play in a browser...). 2) it is a modified BSD licence (+/-) to limit the use of the name Scratch.
