The Free Software Definition Rahmat M. Samik-Ibrahim (c) 2007 adapted from

Free Software ● about liberty ● FREE like in ''free speech'' ● not ''free beer'' A matter of the users' freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve the software.

Four kinds of Freedom ● To run the program, for any purpose. ● To study how the program works, and adapt it to your needs (needs source code). ● To redistribute copies/ help neighbor. ● To improve the program, and release your improvements to the public, so that the whole community benefits (needs source code).

Is this following free? ● Microsoft Windows ● Microsoft Office ● Microsoft Internet Explorer ● Adobe Acrobat ● Mozilla Firefox ● GNU/Linux ● Openoffice.org ● non-commercial software?! ● free download

Open Source ● Others introduce yet another term ● Open Source is similar but NOT identical. ● ''Open'' never refers to freedom.

Conclusion ● Free Software ● Kinds of Freedom ● Open Source Software
