Heute ist #Sehbehindertentag
Anlässlich dessen starte ich einen Aufruf an die internationale #Linux und #FOSS Entwicklungsgemeinde
Sehr gerne #boost
Egal, ob ihr an der Entwicklung einer Linux- oder #BSD-Distribution beteiligt seid oder ob ihr #OpenSource-Programme programmiert:
Bitte geht auf blinde, sehbehinderte, motorisch eingeschränkte #Menschen zu und bindet sie mit in die Entwicklung ein.
Holt euch Feedback ein, ob eure #Software vollumfänglich zB mit einem #Screenreader nutzbar ist, oder welche Herausforderungen dabei bestehen.
Am Beispiel dieses Threads von @WestphalDenn , der hier beschreibt, welche Beeinträchtigungen er für seinen Anwendungsfall Audio-Bearbeitung erlebt (und warum er zurück zu Windows wechselt, was ja nicht im Sinne von FOSS-Enthusiast*innen sein kann, oder?)
At first I'd like to support the process of designing the OS but later I would be SVP.
welcome to the tea party

After a great week for Linux, with the releases of Fedora 40 and today Ubuntu 24.04, I would be interested to know which operating system the Fediverse in my "bubble" uses? Linux? Windows? Or macOS or even a BSD? More than one?
Please write in the comments which distribution or version! Thanks for participating and SHARING!

We now understand why permissive #licensing is bad for #FOSS.
#Redis taught us why #GPL is important and #MIT, #Apache, #BSD etc allow corporations to enclose and steal our contributions.
#Israel's use of #Lavender for targeting in #Gaza, which may also use the code we donated to the commons, shows that we need to be more restrictive if we want to avoid assisting war crimes and probable #genocide.
I hope some lawyers are on this, and will help us add exclusions to protect from such use.
I've seen discussion of #gpl / #copyleft versus #bsd licences in the context of proprietary relicencing recently but unless I’m misunderstanding something it seems like a red herring.
Copyleft is meant to ensure that non-copyright-holders only gain rights if they comply with certain conditions. But the relicencing problem is about the behaviour of the copyright holder.
In either case, the owner can relicence the software as they see fit; and in either case, previous versions remain available.
A new #blog post appears!
I discuss porting chibicc and kefir, two C compilers, to #OpenBSD.
