<p>I respect <a href="/tags/emacs/" rel="tag">#Emacs</a>. I really do. But right now I just wanted to move a sentence around and somehow I&#x27;ve read about marks, regions, kills, yanks, buffers, windows, frames, and the deep personal meaning of the Meta key. I&#x27;m sure this is very powerful. I&#x27;m also sure this task would already be done if I&#x27;d used literally anything else I already know. <a href="/tags/freesoftware/" rel="tag">#FreeSoftware</a> <a href="/tags/softwarefreedom/" rel="tag">#SoftwareFreedom</a></p>

<p>thinking about foss stuff, and I know I&#x27;ve groused about licensing stuff before, and how I feel like my only way out is to just Parity7 everything and fall into obscurity but...</p><p>...I think we need a different movement around open source, with new terminology, that clarifies the intent and opens doors to more pro-social behavior and capabilities (up to and including the potential for &quot;ethical licensing&quot;).</p><p>I&#x27;ve been spitballing the terms Common Software and Community Software. The core idea is that things that count as Community/Common Software can&#x27;t enter the realm of the proprietary (so, strong copyleft a-la AGPL and Parity, virality not necessary). What&#x27;s the difference from &quot;Free Software&quot;? We get rid of &quot;freedom zero&quot;, aka &quot;the freedom to run software for any purpose&quot;. Common Software licenses may have Non-Commercial clauses, Anti-Particular-Industry clauses (such as anti-MIC stuff), etc.</p><p>I think &quot;freedom zero&quot; was a grave mistake. I get where it came from--a desire to remove discrimination--but what it resulted in was a hijacking of Free Software by the corporate &quot;Open Source&quot; wing to exploit an otherwise healthy community of people openly sharing their creations... for an enormous profit that we can&#x27;t even quantify right now.</p><p>We need a strong return to copyleft, and we need to gather together and grow its existing ecosystem, away from the MIT/BSD poison that our world has turned towards.</p><p>Your thoughts are welcome on this. I want to have a conversation about this stuff and maybe eventually record all this in a longer-form blog post. If you know folks who have had similar thoughts please link them so we can chat, too.</p><p><a href="/tags/foss/" rel="tag">#FOSS</a> <a href="/tags/floss/" rel="tag">#FLOSS</a> <a href="/tags/opensource/" rel="tag">#OpenSource</a> <a href="/tags/freesoftware/" rel="tag">#freesoftware</a></p>
