Fabián Rodríguez
I am a consultant, mostly doing "free IT" advocacy & coaching (software , hardware, formats, licenses) in and around Montreal, QC, Canada, focusing on training, security and migration from non-free IT.
I am interested in free technologies advocacy (including formats, content, licensing) & training for new users, with an emphasis on security.
See my LinkedIn profile for more information.
I have adapted the Free Software Definition principles to apply them broadly in technology usage:
- The freedom to use the technology, for any purpose (freedom 0).
- The freedom to study how any given technology works, and adapt it to your needs (freedom 1). Access to the source code, schematics, plans or creation / manufacturing instructions are a precondition for this.
- The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor (freedom 2).
- The freedom to improve a technology, and release your improvements to the public, so that the whole community benefits (freedom 3). Access to the source code, schematics, plans or creation / manufacturing instructions are a precondition for this.
Although there is no local FSF chapter in Quebec province, FACIL is probably the closest thing we have, so most of my FLOSS activies are within that organization.
At FACIL
- I was a member of the administrative board in the past, mostly involved with membership matters and the commercial providers directory
- I am a regular contributor to the wiki (which is temporarily down), with French resources like Ogg Theora, or Free formats
- I participate in the Forum mailing list and volunteer at the Ateliers du Libre.
- I actively network with other organizations.
About me
- I am mostly interested and active in the following fields within the FSF's mandate: advocacy, training, security - based on free technologies
