  3. The team behind the new Contributor Covenant website faced a challenge: how to make adoption easy, without making it thoughtless.

    Our new builder tool slows adoption to the speed of trust with specific prompts for communities to customize their reporting and enforcement guidelines, and directs adopters to resources and guides from industry experts on codes of conduct.

  10. Some have suggested that we write new software licenses that would prohibit unethical use (as mentioned in the article above). See ethicalsource.dev/

    In my opinion it is quite unlikely that such a software license would be more effective than the has been in protecting for those who use Red Star OS.

    That is to say: not at all.

  15. This open ended opinion piece (theregister.com/2023/01/01/fos) from @ssharwood takes me back to Red Star OS (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_St) and Red Flag Linux (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Fl).

    If it is true that they are, or were, Red Hat Linux derivative distributions, they are based on the installer software I wrote when I worked there.

    Of the two, reports of what Red Star OS is and does trouble me (personally speaking).

  20. CW: ♻️ The four freedoms of free software under attack in OSI elections
    mastodon.nzoss.nz/@strypey/103…

    @[email protected]:
    Folks pushing proprietary no-commercial-use licenses (#EthicalSource/ #FairSource etc) are trying to get voted onto the board of the #OSI #OpenSource Initiative, to push the nonsense that their licenses are a kind of #OpenSource". In the early 2000s corporate interests set out to marginalize the #SoftwareFreedom movement by taking control of the #OSI. It's time to return the favour. If you are an OSI member, please vote for board candidates committed to the #FourFreedoms:
