[document update in progress]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was thinking about an idea for a while, then I decided to make it real. Since I am getting old and I started a long time with Free Software, I frequently realize about what is missing and what is failing on FLOSS projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was looking for projects devoted to curate\/heal Free Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS)<\/strong>. And even when I found some initiatives, I found them incomplete. Then I decided to build a theoretical \/ practical framework, to protect the free software. It will focused in three pillars: health, security and quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Health, to determinate in which part of software life cycle a project is, and to bring practical tools to spot that status. Security, to consolidate a verified and widespread baseline. And Quality, to guarantee traceability through projects, their packages, their bugs, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I started from scratch and I’m developing a documentation website, through a static site generator (@getpelican<\/a>). Ideally, every piece of the project will be under pair review. You are invited to participate in the reviews and you are also welcome to contribute :).<\/p>\n\n\n\n During an early chat with Pankaj Gupta, Open Brahmand came up as name for this project, but I changed my mind and I renamed as Freedom Watchers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The fw-org projects at Github: https:\/\/github.com\/freedomwatchers\/<\/a>. I split the web content in www<\/a>, blog<\/a> and doc<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can follow us in our social network accounts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Facebook https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/FreedomWatchers.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Twitter https:\/\/twitter.com\/FreedomWatchers<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Even when a logo is not defined yet, I am using a sunflower to express a Fibonacci sequence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Leonardo Luduena @lle0x<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/i>\n\n\n\n Spanish version of this article: https:\/\/live.lleox.org\/2019\/para-proteger-floss\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
