National Open Source Innovation Summit

Excited to be part of Ireland's National Open Source Innovation Summit. Thanks to the #OpenIreland network. #OpenSource #FOSS #4Freedoms #Innovation
#FreeSoftware is an important building block to a #FreeSociety. With technology being all over, everyone should have the #4freedoms to ensure that we, the #users, control the #technology around us and not the technology controlling us.

@aral the #4opens is designed to JUDGE and use this judgement to create and nurture conversations and actions to widen the space for "commons" what we do with these commons is up to us. This is both messy (thus CC licence as an option) It's wide to include liberalism with bronze and silver, but pushes gold to step beyond this. Where the #4freedoms are FROM, based in 20th century progressive liberalism, the #4opens are TWO, based on the last 40 years of #FOSS we need the second to compost the current mess.
@witchescauldron Ah, nice. Although I’d be wary of recommending Creative Commons licenses for software (Lawrence Lessig warned me off of them for that use case a long time ago, citing lack of limitation of liability clauses). And I’d be careful to ensure people understand that liberal licenses like MIT, while “open source”, do not protect the freedom of the software. I almost feel like #4freedoms reflects the philosophy better than #4opens (but would clash with FSF’s 4 freedoms)
k lees ergens over #4vrijheden in #EU: personen, goederen, diensten, kapitaal. Dat lijkt niet echt op wat #Roosevelt bedoelde met #4freedoms: Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Worship, Freedom from Want, Freedom from Fear.
The @fsfe used to sell a t-shirt that says "the 100 software freedoms" and then starts from "001". That's missing an opportunity and a point:

First of all, of course you start from "00" and you use two digits. You're trying to be nerdy and fail to go Full Nerd?

Second, when you start from 00, you get:

00 Use
01 Study (and improve for private use)
10 Share (verbatim, help your neighbor be free)
11 Improve (as a community, and share improvements)

Freedoms x1 require access to the source code. Freedoms 1x require the right to distribute.

@witchescauldron ^^^ This is our admin. You'll find him living and boating across Europe. He upholds and embodies the #4opens and #4freedoms of #foss and of a platform where *anyone* is welcome to #communicate and find a common ground, with #leftists.

He is not able to continue to keep our server alive beyond 8 Oct without some donations, or funding. We are willing, as a web developer and programmer to work on any project *you* want (non CAGEMAFIA) in exchange for a donation to help #activism.
