SUBJECT | Re: [Hangout - NYLXS] GNU Social Contract version 1.0
|
just a public heads-up on progress on the GNU Social Contract. Following our initially announced timeline, we had put online the first draft at the end of January.
The GNU project has rejected the idea of a social contract. Can you please rename it so to stop causing confusion? Seeing that this does not reflect what offical stance of the GNU project.
The goal of the document is to formulate a common core set of values for the GNU Project, on which we can jointly build to form a stronger community. It is both an agreement among us, GNU contributors, and a pledge to the broader free software community. Additionally, we think it can be a first step towards formalising a transparent and collective governance of the GNU Project.
Since you are not the head of the GNU project, it is not in your capacity to decide what the values of the GNU project are.
That you have resorted to unethical behaviour by harvesting private information, spreading falsehoods and that we haven't added this to the GNU project web site should make that quite clear.
