FreedomBox ot?

[Ron Marriage]

I think his comment wasn't that the Freedom Box was off topic, but that the discussion about the license was incorrect.
Had anyone read the press release from Freedom Box, or read the license info off the Mozilla site they wouldn't have made the mistakes that were being made.
Incorrect information shouldn't be allowed to spread, and that was what was happening.

Have you changed your mind about your post the other day calling discussions of the Mozilla license and Freedom Box' obligations off topic? Are you now considering Freedom Box on topic for the Speakup list? Or do you just think the license discussion is off topic but technical, user support type discussion on topic.
