Free Software Directory meeting recap for April 7th, 2017

Every week free software activists from around the world come together in #fsf on irc.freenode.org to help improve the Free Software Directory. This recaps the work we accomplished at the Friday, April 7th, 2017 meeting.

We focused this week on expanding the Directory and we added scores of projects to it. It wasn't all the work though!

We talked some about how to evaluate a piece of software to determine whether it is free and what is free software. Attendees of the meeting discussed organizing a new campaign to encourage the release of free software for certain pieces of hardware. The conversation centered on brain storming action plans, naming, and other process-type matters.

If you would like to help update the directory, meet with us every Friday in #fsf on irc.freenode.org from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. EDT (16:00 to 19:00 UTC).
