Calling us "an open alternative to Lightroom" gives the impression that we're trying to match Lightroom feature for feature, but we're not some knock off. We do things our own way, we have feature that Lightroom doesn't have and we lack some features that Lightroom does have.

We're a RAW editing application.

Who's interested in participating in a libre-graphics "miniconf" at LCA in January?

You don't even have to fly to Australia this time (which could be a plus or a minus, I know; I gotta assume the people who miss flying that far in a plane can still go hang out at an airport for a couple days or something)

What licence do you use for your open source art projects, and why?

@raphael @320x200 @moparisthebest For most #OSP works, we double licence it with Art Libre + CC BY-SA (they are compatible), as attemp to promote the first, and make the message more clear for our mainstream contacts with the second. We are interested in CC4R but let's wait the development of it - https://gitlab.constantvzw.org/unbound/cc4r And for fonts, OFL currently, enve if observing the myriad of other "arrangments".

@lgm At @freehive professional designers are working exclusively with #FreeSoftware. What a great studio, what inspiring people!
Thanks a lot for the insights Ryan Gorley!

@lgm #Hackers, "enjoy your weirdness"!
The User Interfaces of Free Software as an alternative concept to the monoculture of interface designs from #Cupertino, that are aiming on efficiency for #capitalism purposes, reinforcing the hegemony of white men and symbolizing suppression of #diversity. Still I'm processing the deeper meanings of this eye opening lecture.

Thank you so much Brendan Howell!
