5 FOSS for Media Makers What is FOSS? Free (Libre) Open Source Software

6

7 proprietary vs. free software Free software: community benefit motive open source can modify can redistribute Proprietary software: ● commercial benefit motive ● closed source ● can't modify ● can't redistribute

8 Free Software “free” - ambiguous “libre” (as in FREE SPEECH) not “gratis” (as in FREE BEER)

9 You can charge money for free software, that isn't what “free” refers to. But in practice, much free software is free as in beer, also.

10 Free Software “free software” coined by Richard Stallman (GNU / free software movement), 1983

11 Freedom to: run the program, for any purpose study how the program works, and adapt it to your needs (access to the source code) redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor improve the program, and release your improvements to the public, so that the whole community benefits

12 Join us now and share the software; You'll be free, hackers, you'll be free. x2 Hoarders may get piles of money, That is true, hackers, that is true. But they cannot help their neighbors; That's not good, hackers, that's not good. When we have enough free software At our call, hackers, at our call, We'll throw out those dirty licenses Ever more, hackers, ever more. Join us now and share the software; You'll be free, hackers, you'll be free. x2 Cover of “The Free Software Song” (Richard Stallman) by the GNU Stallmans from the film “Revolution OS” about the history of the Linux OS

13 free software vs. open source Free software: ethical motive Free Software Foundation social movement radical roots / idealist Open source software: ● practical motive ● Open Source Initiative ● development methodology ● “business-friendly”

14 FOSS Licenses Examples GNU General Public License (GPL) BSD-style licenses Mozilla Public License (MPL)
