We are a group of free software advocate hobbyist programmers who make
cool stuff. Our goal with this project is to work together to make good
software that at least we want to use. Currently, our plans are a bit
muddy, and given that we all have busy lives, progress may be slow for
the forseeable future. Check back every once in a while and see whats
changed!

<p>
Signing a typical software license agreement means betraying your
neighbor: “I promise to deprive my neighbor of this program so that
I can have a copy for myself.” People who make such choices feel
internal psychological pressure to justify them, by downgrading the
importance of helping one's neighbors—thus public spirit suffers.
This is psychosocial harm associated with the material harm of
discouraging use of the program.

Our <a href="/network">Network</a> was originally intended to facilitate

providing to members firm foundations of support. Unfortunately, because
of the way the Tebibyte Media community came to fruition, it wasnt the
best idea for us. You can read more
