This implies that Electron is non-free. Is the concern over certain unclear licensing practices of Chromium? If so, can Chromium just be built without those unclearly-licensed components? For example: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2019-02/msg00009.html If there is no intentional malice with regards to licensing from Electron, Chromium, or any other projects involved, then it seems more appropriate to me to fix or work around the issue than it does to avoid the projects entirely. These are popular projects and it's in our best interest to do our best to resolve the issues rather than sidestep them, because they are not going away. =2D-=20 Mike Gerwitz Free Software Hacker+Activist | GNU Maintainer & Volunteer GPG: D6E9 B930 028A 6C38 F43B 2388 FEF6 3574 5E6F 6D05 https://mikegerwitz.com --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJcVvp5AAoJEIyRe39dxRuiX+4P/2PjTv4NPc99ahhzGCb0NcCM sXsjeXwNLrFbJtTIExEDKoXEdZoQvvcsDtFMMLNHL3mkddHR/wz2h9TIAw8ykjl0 bic1KGsT21UlBZJbGA+a7TIFiiCFskQlx3at06/5YrccBBR4vZPvC3RoUrU5TAiv dDxPXGDE8Xp22IRQDOdH5KMKV9Mg2txLR8qJe7C5V8x2eQuWYUAm896H3X9WkuCM Tl1BYX3ZErCyppD+xfcNs+eRzfNG5LCGkNeFAAItZumMFal637wFHXrVN519XT+O CiQhe6L1RWvz+UnbpDtK/CQb333JqGUY0vMJTpmQXExe7ni1ehrD3NCU/oogxN6g F3YgBm17mFR9WHD599neh/blgwaqHS/f+NmBEDt4C/sO5CocmiUmFV//MoKw/oXS PcOLYrhIBsXgapu8IY990I+vBSlylNBHMV7lqbYlBdCrOhOw22gkL8mtYzvGo7zs M0z5BqO18CS+UFB0iDvkPVDZHKJb6OCoMVpUJJvoGf+qRK686SQxXLZJj2N1YUKI w5RAigGoEDUUIiemS8iznRUIsErHurRucC9lVHWAjZphrTfIvHFzQaML+An4QuE0 WhxYZh9Rmmak2GTRON30VvUzqBI2eLHyQ/iOt4K73T85I0iUcGXsROnXdh9G7Ldw d264lqH1z2VXRN4HuF09 =5dZs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=-- --===============1089154879561295361== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ libreplanet-discuss mailing list libreplanet-discuss@libreplanet.org https://lists.libreplanet.org/mailman/listinfo/libreplanet-discuss --===============1089154879561295361==--
