The last meters
There are two more things I´d like to say. First Okuji
Yoshinori and I have been talking about the reasons why people work
on Free Software. No single person can give a satisfying answer so
I´m asking you to tell me your personal motives why you work
on Free Software.
Last month I received a mail by someone who did not know whether
he could contact me to present his project because, though it is
GPL’ed, the copyright is held by a University. That´s why I
would like to set this straight. This column tries to provide a
forum for all Free Software projects – whether they be official GNU
Projects or not. Everyone is welcome to send his or her ideas,
questions; and all Free Software has the chance to be featured by
the Brave GNU World.
So once again I´m asking everyone not to spare with ideas,
comments and questions. As usual the address can be found in the
info box [1].
