[Savannah-hackers] savannah.gnu.org: submission of free software business case

[patrick . hutton]

A package was submitted to savannah.gnu.org.
This mail was sent to address@hidden, address@hidden

If it already is an official GNU package, it will be approved shortly.
Otherwise it must be discussed on address@hidden for approval. 

patrick <address@hidden> described the package as follows:
License: fdl
Other License: 
Package: free software business case
Unix name: fsbc

I have decided that a document explaining the business case for Free Software 
is needed with
particular emphesis on The GNU GPL.  I have already started it and copyrighted 
it.  It is released under the terms of the GNU FDL.  I want it to be a open 
project free to sensible contributions from all people.  The outline at present 
is; Introduction, The importance of business ethics, The History of Free 
Software, The Case Against Free Software, The Case for Free Software, Open or 
Free does it matter? Licenses and their implications, Random Thoughts, GNU FDL.

The first step in this project`s developement is to correctly plan the 
structure before moving into the text itself.  This will give the project a 
Debian like modularity to it.

Loic Dachary (address@hidden and address@hidden or address@hidden) has been 
recomending I do this he will be able to vouch for my intentions.

I am doing this because I want to make a contribution to a movement that has 
helped me and because I think it is the right thing to do.
