Post "Richard Stallman Was Right All Along" by Thom Holwerda. Makes a very good point comparing free software with the decrease in civil liberties now (jan/2012). And an important point showing that open software means control. If we want control of the increasingly present software, it has to be open.
What happened to software? Why is there so few creative software (2010)? Are we at the end of software? What are the forces which led to this situation, looking like a bit step backward to the epoch of non-programmable accounting machines? Is there a way out of this situation? Yes, and a very simple one: make good software. With invention. Developing models and abstractions. It is difficult but absolutely possible. It this re-start of software I wish to explore here in this blog. Welcome
