LI_S02E29_The_Free_Software_Foundation

In this episode the Inlaws host Zoë Kooyman and Greg Farough from the Free Software Foundation (FSF), one of the backbones of the FLOSS movement. Home to many primordial projects including the GNU congregation of free software such as Emacs and its compiler collection, the FSF can look back on forty years of shaping the FLOSS ecosystem in a way that few other organisations have managed to achieve. So if you wanted to know why Emacs is actually an operating system rather than just an editor, what the FSF really is beyond Richard M. Stallman and what's in store for the FSF, then you don't want to miss this episode! Plus bonus content: the low-down on Dutch street organs and a really well-kept Dutch secret (woa!). Ya REALLY dunt wanna miss tis! :-)
