Ultimately, we should make suggestions and recommendations. | |||
Things we might want to keep in mind include: | |||
* What do and should network services mean? How broad or narrow should we be in our recommendations? How do we need to divide things up to understand and handle them? What is our scope and our limitations? | |||
* The FSF's real power has been in taking principled statements in favor or essential freedoms. Is that something we can or should do in this case? If so, what might it be? | |||
** Is the idea that the FSF's power comes from making statements noncontroversial? It seems to me the FSF's real power comes from being an effective maintainer of the GPL (and to A Lesser extent its cousins, ha ha) and of most of the crucial pieces required to run Free Software on any computer (ie GNU). | |||
** What ethical responsibilities and rights can and should we make statements about? | |||
* A general evaluation of the classes of solutions out there including: | |||
** Legal approaches | |||
** Technical approaches | |||
** Social approaches | |||
* A list of concrete ideas how to proceed and explicit recommendations. | |||
** Should we start a GNU project for building "free" versions of popular hosted services? | |||
Finally, we should consider our own next steps: | |||
* What, if any, are the next steps for this group? | |||
* Do want to open up this group? If so, when and how? | |||
* [[Network services/Draft statement]] | |||
