Enrico Zini coined the BDSM Free Software Manifesto (formerly Definition, which however isn't as precise as a description and more importantly doesn't fit in a cool geeky acronym):

I refuse to be bound by software I cannot negotiate with.



This begged to be turned into a cross-stitch wall hanging. I couldn't refuse.



More information and context for the phrase can be found in the notes for Enrico's talk at DebConf 2015: "Enrico's Semi Serious Stand-up Comedy". Note that while fully textual, the topics may be considered not really SFW, and some of the links definitely aren't. It also includes many insights into the nature of collaboration and Free Software Communities, so I'd recommend reading it (and watching the video recording of the talk) anyway.

I've finally also published the pattern on my website:

* The image I've used while embroidering
* kxstitch project (converted now that kxstitch is back into Debian)
* kxstitch generated PDF 


Edit: fixed broken links to kxstitch resources.
