@aurele Yes, Gnash is. The code Gnash runs is not. It's like running non-free JavaScript on a free browser. It's still non-free.
-
@aurele Yep, it's a shame the YouTube player is non-free. See FlashVideoReplacer http://is.gd/RwvWMk and http://is.gd/je5rmm

@joseluis @arder I was told on IRC that !trisquel has dealt with the Thunderbird issue (but is allowed to use the trademark)
about a year ago from web -
@jokot3 I said 'not respecting freedom' in general. But thanks for your kind consideration of my perspective(!)
-
@patrickniedzielski To me, a system doesn't respect freedom until it treats non-free software like copyright violations on YouTube.
-
@patrickniedzielski Which is completely different from supporting a specific project (or video, or author)
-
@patrickniedzielski Again, you're missing my point. Hosting non-free software is supporting the idea of installing non-free software.
-
@patrickniedzielski That is contrary to the !GNU position (of respecting the four freedoms) that non-free software is immoral.
-
@patrickniedzielski That is, without a doubt, endorsing installation of non-free software (not a specific project, just in general).
-
@patrickniedzielski They have a repository set up specifically for the purpose of installing non-free software.
-
@patrickniedzielski There is no way to prevent non-free software from running on a system if the admin wants it to.
-
@patrickniedzielski No, I mean support in the sense of actively working on and endorsing. That is not respecting the four freedoms.
-
@patrickniedzielski That's not what I said at all. I said it's not *respecting* freedom to *support* the installation of non-free software.
-
@patrickniedzielski The base system is free, yes. But supporting the installation of non-free software is not respecting freedom.
-
@patrickniedzielski True, that's why GNU doesn't recommend Debian http://is.gd/WtpZPH
-
@arder Indeed. It shouldn't.
-
@danielmarti Chromium, Firefox and Iceweasel do not respect freedom !freesoftware http://is.gd/QukkED

@urcscumug Nice! I have my own installation of Tiny Tiny RSS - kinda like Google Reader. http://tt-rss.org/
-
@urcscumug It is! I saw it in the cinema. Actually looked it up just the other day because I couldn't remember the name. Want to see again!
