Revision as of 14:48, 1 August 2012

Please post and discuss ideas for the Free Software Foundation.

Please sign and date your posts by typing four tildes: ~~~~

Membership Benefits

  • offer them a gnu.org or fsf.org or maybe best a libreplanet.org mail adress. Freedom is not just a word, it's a duty! 11:45, 11 February 2012 (EST)
    • We do this already Dpic 00:17, 9 April 2012 (EDT)
      • No, just forwarding--email receiving is great, but email sending is even better! Mtraceur 22:35, 16 April 2012 (EDT)
  • offer them a mini-guide bash in paper a sort of 20 page bash survival guide with informations about the usb key card, their mail adress, the existing projects and gnu mailing list. Freedom is not just a word, it's a duty! 11:45, 11 February 2012 (EST)
  • offer them a libreplanet sticker just one but a good one Freedom is not just a word, it's a duty! 11:45, 11 February 2012 (EST)

Campaigns

Existing

Working Together For Free Software

Welcoming newcomers

How does the refocused homepage look?

  • We should create a Working Together for Free Software badge that featured projects can display and link back to the campaign --Dpic 15:00, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Profiles

Suggest individuals involved in free software to have their profile featured by the FSF.

Defective By Design

Post ideas here: Group:DefectiveByDesign/Ideas

Events

Existing

LibrePlanet Conference

  • Offer a solution of live video / audio streaming of the conference --Aurélien 9:49 Sat Febuary 9.50 (UTC 2012
  • It should be an international event that is also hosted outside the U.S. just like GPLv3 conferences. This can be done in collaboration with other FSF* organizations. In addition, it should be in summer instead of March where many people are able to consider attending. These two issues do matter to many free software advocates who are students.--OsamaK 15:04, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

Proposals

FSF 25th Anniversary

  • The Free Software Foundation's birthday is October 4th: Social gatherings? A simple, orchestrated global action? Something? --Dpic 18:29, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
