Discussing the Libre Emblem:

Please go ahead and discuss or edit this page to produce a coherent proposal of how to use the libre emblem on various things (virtual, physical, ...) ...

Introduction

The idea progressed from a "libre license" to a "libre emblem" when the community seemed to prefer not to proliferate licenses. The Libre Puro license, in a bottom-up way, gets around the incompatibilities between GNU Free Documentation License and Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike, and still stands as a proposal.

Here, we discuss the libre emblem, consolidating its use on knowledge resources (documents, software, web pages, and other digital resources) and extending its use to include physical devices, components and real world objects.

Specifically, we have in mind devices whose architecture is libre.

Activity

Check that the entries are really libre, correct and extend the list below: FreeRunner - see OpenMoko. Lemote laptops etc. OScar

The idea does not need to stop at electronic devices.
