GNOME Foundation Charter: I’ve read it. Have you?


GNOME is part of the GNU project and supports the goals of the GNU project as defined by the Free Software Foundation. Free software licensing has always been a mainstay of GNOME, and we must ensure that this tradition continues. GNOME will include only Free software.

From the GNOME Foundation Charter.

About Me

I’m a member of some organizations. When an organization interests me, I take the time to educate myself about them and then I follow a very complex decision tree:

If I like and understand the organization’s reason for existence, then I consider contributing.

Else, I just stay away.

I know that is just the sort of irrational and illogical craziness we zealots engage in, so read it a few times if it’s not clear.

Not About Me

You know what I don’t do? Join an organziation whose Charter I don’t agree with and then do my goddamn dead level best to disrupt and insult people that do.
