Defy dystopia

In a world where technology is becoming more and more predatory, a dystopian reality seems just around the corner. It can feel like others hold the reins and dictate how we live our lives. Fear not: free software can defy dystopia because you, the user, have full control over the software vital to your daily life.

The FSF has been campaigning for your software freedom for forty years. We can't prevent a dystopian future alone - join us in our crucial work to guard user freedom and defy dystopia. Become an associate member today!

GNU Spotlight with Mike Gerwitz: 16 new GNU releases in January!

by Free Software Foundation Contributions Published on Jan 27, 2020 04:42 PM
16 new GNU releases in the last month (as of January 26, 2020):

For announcements of most new GNU releases, subscribe to the info-gnu mailing list: https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnu.

To download: nearly all GNU software is available from https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/, or preferably one of its mirrors from https://www.gnu.org/prep/ftp.html. You can use the URL https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/ to be automatically redirected to a (hopefully) nearby and up-to-date mirror.

A number of GNU packages, as well as the GNU operating system as a whole, are looking for maintainers and other assistance: please see https://www.gnu.org/server/takeaction.html#unmaint if you'd like to help. The general page on how to help GNU is at https://www.gnu.org/help/help.html.

If you have a working or partly working program that you'd like to offer to the GNU project as a GNU package, see https://www.gnu.org/help/evaluation.html.

As always, please feel free to write to us at maintainers@gnu.org with any GNUish questions or suggestions for future installments.
