Christophe Bruno: Global Artists 4 [Spartacus]

Free slaveware
Spartacus
Capua, Italy, 73 BC.


Free slaveware is a matter of the user's freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve the slave. 
More precisely, it refers to four kinds of freedom, 
for the users of the slave:
  • The freedom to run the slave, for any purpose.
  • The freedom to study how the slave works, and adapt it to your needs.
  • The freedom to redistribute copies so that you can help your neighbor.
  • The freedom to improve the slave, and release your improvements to the public, so that the whole community benefits.
Access to the genetic code of the slave is a precondition for this.
