Network services/Definitions

From WikiDotMako

Definitions can be used, as in the Free Software and Free Culture definitions, to highlight network services that meet a standard of freedom.

Summary of current practices

OSD: Open data (private data only open to the user it's about) and public free software.

FOSD: this is more of a brainstorming/reference page than a definition; the draft definition produced from that process has been mailed to the mailing list and if someone nags me I'll put it on the web somewhere :)

Open issues

  • What do you do about Googlejuice?
  • What do you do about identity?
  • Are external dependencies permitted?
  • Ease-of-install requirements?
  • Interoperability requirements?
  • Requirement to share aggregate/anonymized user data?
