One thing I feel is extremely important for the Free Software Foundation to get up and running is a website that explains the importance of Free Software to people who are new to free software. The website should illustrates very clearly the importance of free software, with a few initial SHORT arguments. It should have only the most important topics written in non-technical language.

Ideas:

  • What are the most important KEY topics?
  • Perhaps compile a list of the five most asked questions when people are new to free software.
-Why should I care?
-How do people make money?
-What does free software do that my (Mac, Windows, whatever) doesn't do?
  • I feel we need example for many of our explanations
  • Videos would be great
  • The site needs to be pretty and NOT messy
