FSD meeting recap 2024-11-29

by Craig Topham Contributions Published on Nov 29, 2024 03:42 PM
Check out the important work our volunteers accomplished at today's Free Software Directory (FSD) IRC meeting.

Every week, free software activists from around the world come together in #fsf on Libera.Chat to help improve the FSD, which is a catalog of useful free software that runs under free GNU-like systems (not limited to the GNU operating system and its GNU/Linux variants) and a project of the Free Software Foundation (FSF). This recaps the work we accomplished at the Friday 29th, 2024, meeting where we saw a couple of new programs added and several entries updated.

New programs approved with licensing check:

  • Boxes is an extremely configurable filter for adding and removing ASCII art.
  • REUSE is a tool for checking and helping with compliance with the REUSE recommendations.
  • Anarch is a unique FPS game.
  • Most is a file viewing program/pager utility.

Programs with version bumps or minor edits:

  • WackWiki is a light and handy Wiki-engine.
  • GNU Autoconf is a package of m4 macros that produce portable shell scripts to automatically configure software source code packages.

Join us each week to help improve the FSD every Friday in #fsf on Libera.Chat from 12:00 to 15:00 EST (16:00 to 19:00 UTC). Find out more about upcoming FSD IRC Meetings by subscribing to our events RSS feed.
