15     <h3>The Free Software Definition</h3>
16 webcvs 1.1
17 rms 1.110 <blockquote>
18 ineiev 1.112 <p>
19 rms 1.110 The free software definition presents the criteria for whether a
20     particular software program qualifies as free software. From time to
21     time we revise this definition, to clarify it or to resolve questions
22     about subtle issues. See the <a href="#History">History section</a>
23     below for a list of changes that affect the definition of free
24     software.
25 ineiev 1.112 </p>
26 rms 1.110 </blockquote>
27    
28     <p>
29     &ldquo;Free software&rdquo; means software that respects users'
30 rms 1.113 freedom and community. Roughly, <b>the users have the freedom to run,
31     copy, distribute, study, change and improve the software</b>. With these
32 rms 1.110 freedoms, the users (both individually and collectively) control the
33     program and what it does for them.
34     </p>
35    
36 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
37 rms 1.110 When users don't control the program, the program controls the users.
38     The developer controls the program, and through it controls the users.
39     This nonfree or &ldquo;proprietary&rdquo; program is therefore an
40     instrument of unjust power.
41 sinuhe 1.48 </p>
42    
43 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
44 rms 1.110 Thus, &ldquo;free software&rdquo; is a matter of liberty, not price.
45     To understand the concept, you should think of &ldquo;free&rdquo; as
46     in &ldquo;free speech,&rdquo; not as in &ldquo;free beer&rdquo;.
47 sinuhe 1.48 </p>
48    
49 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
50 rms 1.110 A program is free software if the program's users have the
51     four essential freedoms:
52 sinuhe 1.48 </p>
53 webcvs 1.1
54 wkotwica 1.24 <ul>
55     <li>The freedom to run the program, for any purpose (freedom 0).</li>
56 rms 1.105 <li>The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it
57     does your computing as you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source
58     code is a precondition for this.
59 sinuhe 1.48 </li>
60 wkotwica 1.24 <li>The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor
61 sinuhe 1.48 (freedom 2).
62     </li>
63 rms 1.90 <li>The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions
64     to others (freedom 3). By doing this you can give the whole
65     community a chance to benefit from your changes.
66 sinuhe 1.48 Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
67     </li>
68 wkotwica 1.24 </ul>
69 webcvs 1.1
70 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
71 sinuhe 1.48 A program is free software if users have all of these freedoms. Thus,
72     you should be free to redistribute copies, either with or without
73     modifications, either gratis or charging a fee for distribution, to
74     <a href="#exportcontrol">anyone anywhere</a>. Being free to do these
75     things means (among other things) that you do not have to ask or pay
76 rms 1.88 for permission to do so.
77 sinuhe 1.48 </p>
78    
79 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
80 webcvs 1.1 You should also have the freedom to make modifications and use them
81     privately in your own work or play, without even mentioning that they
82     exist. If you do publish your changes, you should not be required to
83 sinuhe 1.48 notify anyone in particular, or in any particular way.
84     </p>
85    
86 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
87 sinuhe 1.48 The freedom to run the program means the freedom for any kind of person
88     or organization to use it on any kind of computer system, for any kind of
89     overall job and purpose, without being required to communicate about it
90     with the developer or any other specific entity. In this freedom, it is
91     the <em>user's</em> purpose that matters, not the <em>developer's</em>
92 rms 1.88 purpose; you as a user are free to run the program for your purposes,
93 sinuhe 1.48 and if you distribute it to someone else, she is then free to run it
94     for her purposes, but you are not entitled to impose your purposes on her.
95 rms 1.46 </p>
96 sinuhe 1.48
97 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
98 webcvs 1.1 The freedom to redistribute copies must include binary or executable
99 rms 1.5 forms of the program, as well as source code, for both modified and
100 sinuhe 1.48 unmodified versions. (Distributing programs in runnable form is necessary
101 rms 1.88 for conveniently installable free operating systems.) It is OK if there
102 sinuhe 1.48 is no way to produce a binary or executable form for a certain program
103     (since some languages don't support that feature), but you must have the
104     freedom to redistribute such forms should you find or develop a way to
105     make them.
106     </p>
107    
108 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
109 rms 1.88 In order for freedoms 1 and 3 (the freedom to make changes and the
110     freedom to publish improved versions) to be meaningful, you must have
111     access to the source code of the program. Therefore, accessibility of
112 rms 1.92 source code is a necessary condition for free software. Obfuscated
113     &ldquo;source code&rdquo; is not real source code and does not count
114     as source code.
115 sinuhe 1.48 </p>
116    
117 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
118 rms 1.80 Freedom 1 includes the freedom to use your changed version in place of
119     the original. If the program is delivered in a product designed to
120 rms 1.105 run someone else's modified versions but refuse to run yours &mdash; a
121     practice known as &ldquo;tivoization&rdquo; or &ldquo;lockdown&rdquo;,
122     or (in its practitioners' perverse terminology) as &ldquo;secure
123     boot&rdquo; &mdash; freedom 1 becomes a theoretical fiction rather
124     than a practical freedom. This is not sufficient. In other words,
125     these binaries are not free software even if the source code they are
126     compiled from is free.
127 rms 1.80 </p>
128    
129     <p>
130 rms 1.74 One important way to modify a program is by merging in available free
131     subroutines and modules. If the program's license says that you
132 rms 1.88 cannot merge in a suitably licensed existing module &mdash; for instance, if it
133     requires you to be the copyright holder of any code you add &mdash; then the
134 rms 1.74 license is too restrictive to qualify as free.
135 sinuhe 1.48 </p>
136    
137 novalis 1.40 <p>
138 rms 1.93 Freedom 3 includes the freedom to release your modified versions
139 rms 1.89 as free software. A free license may also permit other ways of
140     releasing them; in other words, it does not have to be
141     a <a href="/copyleft/copyleft.html">copyleft</a> license. However, a
142     license that requires modified versions to be nonfree does not qualify
143     as a free license.
144     </p>
145    
146     <p>
147 rms 1.79 In order for these freedoms to be real, they must be permanent and
148     irrevocable as long as you do nothing wrong; if the developer of the
149 rms 1.111 software has the power to revoke the license, or retroactively add
150     restrictions to its terms, without your doing anything wrong to give
151     cause, the software is not free.
152 sinuhe 1.48 </p>
153    
154 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
155 webcvs 1.1 However, certain kinds of rules about the manner of distributing free
156     software are acceptable, when they don't conflict with the central
157     freedoms. For example, copyleft (very simply stated) is the rule that
158     when redistributing the program, you cannot add restrictions to deny
159     other people the central freedoms. This rule does not conflict with
160 sinuhe 1.48 the central freedoms; rather it protects them.
161     </p>
162    
163     <p>
164 joeko 1.109 &ldquo;Free software&rdquo; does not mean &ldquo;noncommercial&rdquo;. A free
165 rms 1.75 program must be available for commercial use, commercial development,
166     and commercial distribution. Commercial development of free software
167     is no longer unusual; such free commercial software is very important.
168 sinuhe 1.48 You may have paid money to get copies of free software, or you may have
169     obtained copies at no charge. But regardless of how you got your copies,
170     you always have the freedom to copy and change the software, even to
171     <a href="/philosophy/selling.html">sell copies</a>.
172     </p>
173    
174 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
175 rms 1.74 Whether a change constitutes an improvement is a subjective matter.
176     If your modifications are limited, in substance, to changes that
177     someone else considers an improvement, that is not freedom.
178     </p>
179    
180     <p>
181 rms 1.98 However, rules about how to package a modified version are acceptable,
182     if they don't substantively limit your freedom to release modified
183     versions, or your freedom to make and use modified versions privately.
184     Thus, it is acceptable for the license to require that you change the
185     name of the modified version, remove a logo, or identify your
186     modifications as yours. As long as these requirements are not so
187     burdensome that they effectively hamper you from releasing your
188     changes, they are acceptable; you're already making other changes to
189     the program, so you won't have trouble making a few more.
190     </p>
191    
192     <p>
193 rms 1.110 A special issue arises when a license requires changing the name by
194     which the program will be invoked from other programs. That
195     effectively hampers you from releasing your changed version so that it
196     can replace the original when invoked by those other programs. This
197 ineiev 1.112 sort of requirement is acceptable only if there's a suitable aliasing
198 rms 1.110 facility that allows you to specify the original program's name as an
199     alias for the modified version.</p>
200    
201     <p>
202 rms 1.98 Rules that &ldquo;if you make your version available in this way, you
203     must make it available in that way also&rdquo; can be acceptable too,
204     on the same condition. An example of such an acceptable rule is one
205     saying that if you have distributed a
206     modified version and a previous developer asks for a copy of it, you
207     must send one. (Note that such a rule still leaves you the choice of
208     whether to distribute your version at all.) Rules that require release
209     of source code to the users for versions that you put into public use
210     are also acceptable.
211 rms 1.39 </p>
212 sinuhe 1.48
213 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
214 sinuhe 1.48 In the GNU project, we use
215 jrasata 1.94 <a href="/copyleft/copyleft.html">copyleft</a>
216 sinuhe 1.48 to protect these freedoms legally for everyone. But
217 jrasata 1.96 <a href="/philosophy/categories.html#Non-CopyleftedFreeSoftware">noncopylefted
218 sinuhe 1.48 free software</a> also exists. We believe there are important reasons why
219 brett 1.87 <a href="/philosophy/pragmatic.html">it is better to use copyleft</a>,
220 jrasata 1.96 but if your program is noncopylefted free software, it is still basically
221 jrasata 1.97 ethical. (See <a href="/philosophy/categories.html">Categories of Free Software</a> for a description of how &ldquo;free software,&rdquo; &ldquo;copylefted software&rdquo; and other categories of software relate to each other.)
222 sinuhe 1.48 </p>
223    
224     <p>
225     Sometimes government <a id="exportcontrol">export control regulations</a>
226     and trade sanctions can constrain your freedom to distribute copies of
227     programs internationally. Software developers do not have the power to
228     eliminate or override these restrictions, but what they can and must do
229     is refuse to impose them as conditions of use of the program. In this
230     way, the restrictions will not affect activities and people outside the
231 rms 1.74 jurisdictions of these governments. Thus, free software licenses
232 brett 1.76 must not require obedience to any export regulations as a condition of
233 rms 1.74 any of the essential freedoms.
234 sinuhe 1.48 </p>
235    
236 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
237 sinuhe 1.48 Most free software licenses are based on copyright, and there are limits
238     on what kinds of requirements can be imposed through copyright. If a
239     copyright-based license respects freedom in the ways described above, it
240     is unlikely to have some other sort of problem that we never anticipated
241     (though this does happen occasionally). However, some free software
242     licenses are based on contracts, and contracts can impose a much larger
243     range of possible restrictions. That means there are many possible ways
244 rms 1.88 such a license could be unacceptably restrictive and nonfree.
245 sinuhe 1.48 </p>
246    
247 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
248 rms 1.41 We can't possibly list all the ways that might happen. If a
249     contract-based license restricts the user in an unusual way that
250     copyright-based licenses cannot, and which isn't mentioned here as
251 sinuhe 1.48 legitimate, we will have to think about it, and we will probably conclude
252 rms 1.88 it is nonfree.
253 sinuhe 1.48 </p>
254    
255 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
256 sinuhe 1.48 When talking about free software, it is best to avoid using terms
257 karl 1.91 like &ldquo;give away&rdquo; or &ldquo;for free,&rdquo; because those terms imply that
258 sinuhe 1.48 the issue is about price, not freedom. Some common terms such
259 karl 1.91 as &ldquo;piracy&rdquo; embody opinions we hope you won't endorse. See
260 sinuhe 1.48 <a href="/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html">Confusing Words and Phrases that
261     are Worth Avoiding</a> for a discussion of these terms. We also have
262 rms 1.88 a list of proper <a href="/philosophy/fs-translations.html">translations of
263 karl 1.91 &ldquo;free software&rdquo;</a> into various languages.
264 sinuhe 1.48 </p>
265    
266 wkotwica 1.24 <p>
267 webcvs 1.2 Finally, note that criteria such as those stated in this free software
268 sinuhe 1.48 definition require careful thought for their interpretation. To decide
269     whether a specific software license qualifies as a free software license,
270     we judge it based on these criteria to determine whether it fits their
271     spirit as well as the precise words. If a license includes unconscionable
272     restrictions, we reject it, even if we did not anticipate the issue
273     in these criteria. Sometimes a license requirement raises an issue
274     that calls for extensive thought, including discussions with a lawyer,
275     before we can decide if the requirement is acceptable. When we reach
276     a conclusion about a new issue, we often update these criteria to make
277     it easier to see why certain licenses do or don't qualify.
278     </p>
279    
280     <p>
281     If you are interested in whether a specific license qualifies as a free
282     software license, see our <a href="/licenses/license-list.html">list
283     of licenses</a>. If the license you are concerned with is not
284     listed there, you can ask us about it by sending us email at
285     <a href="mailto:licensing@gnu.org">&lt;licensing@gnu.org&gt;</a>.
286     </p>
287    
288     <p>
289 rms 1.88 If you are contemplating writing a new license, please contact the
290     Free Software Foundation first by writing to that address. The
291     proliferation of different free software licenses means increased work
292     for users in understanding the licenses; we may be able to help you
293     find an existing free software license that meets your needs.
294 novalis 1.29 </p>
295 webcvs 1.2
296 novalis 1.29 <p>
297     If that isn't possible, if you really need a new license, with our
298 rms 1.88 help you can ensure that the license really is a free software license
299 novalis 1.29 and avoid various practical problems.

305 yavor 1.61 <a href="/philosophy/free-doc.html">Software manuals must be free</a>,
