Does before GNU de-facto free software inventions count?
A lot of innovations were made before GNU, like for instance the ITS operating system features. Gnutoo2 12:36, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
to look for innovations
- some gimp plugins with new ways to modify images, for instance the ones that removes object and restore the background behind it, look for university papers and their gimp implementations Gnutoo2 12:40, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
- maybe GNU emacs innovated in some ways Gnutoo2 12:45, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
- listen to the floss weekly talk on asterisk, they include some inovations made with asterisk
- versioning system(cvs etc...)
Flexibility
We could also argue that free software is usually more flexible, which permit innovations.
