Telecom operators and free software in the "boxes"

April supports the Freebox http://freebox.flouzo.fr/ campaign aimed at protecting the rights of authors of free software. Harald Welte, a developer of iptables, supported by Rob Landley and Erik Andersen Project BusyBox (two software present in all Freebox), calls for compliance with the GNU General Public License they have chosen for their software. Indeed, anyone who uses their work should attribute it to its authors, and any distribution of modified versions of their software makes it compulsory to disclose the sources of these changes.

April supports the authors of free software and will always support them to ask telecom operators to comply with the licensing of free software that they distribute in their "boxes".
