Yes, that autist that’s done more in 40 years than anyone else in the world.
The one that doesn’t have any translations
Seems to have some translations:

What is your proposal for a “worldwide” Parliamentary Group? Do we wait to establish a World Parliament, along with a World Government, or is there something we could do in the meantime?
FSFE is not the same as FSF. It’s a completely independent organisation.
It’s a “sister organization”. Laws are different in different parts of the world, so it makes sense to have different “forks” if you wish.
Yes they share many similarities with the FSF, but they are separate, and have some different viewpoints on things. You can’t use something they do as an argument as to why FSF is good, when the actual FSF doesn’t do that thing. They also dislike RMS, who is also one of @onlinepersona@programming.dev 's arguments against the FSF.
What license do they choose? I clicked though the article to another article (in German) and then to another:
- https://www.ti8m.com/de/blog/open-source-gesetz-schweiz
- https://www.openjustitia.ch/DE/interne_Open_Justitia.html
And found this (in German language) part:
Die Software wird unter der sogenannten “Open Source Lizenz GLP V3” allgemein zur Verfügung gestellt.
Is it actually GPLv3 and this is just a typo? Or is this a modified version maybe?
The law says this:
Soweit möglich und sinnvoll sind international etablierte Lizenztexte zu verwenden. Haftungsansprüche von Lizenznehmern sind auszuschliessen, soweit dies rechtlich möglich ist.
As far as possible and expedient, internationally established licenses are to be used.
That sounds like they’re not mandating specific licenses, but the GPL is a reasonable choice
The only problem is that there are a number of licenses that purport to be open source, but which don’t meet established definitions of the term. The license for Grayjay comes to mind. I’d hope that they blacklist certain licenses like that, rather than enforcing a specific one.
Huh, I hadn’t heard about this. I hope Rossman doesn’t think he’s above criticism.
I like it. And any OSS licence model is better than closed IMO. Let’s see how it shakes out.
