      Owned and operated by community at large, with the goal of bringing value for people, not for bringing people’s money to shareholders

        ok, so this is about how you run software, i.e. who owns the server hardware, while free software is about how software is developed, right?

              I don’t think it’s a term, really, more of broad idea applied to this topic

      The EU should sponsor various projects or provide tax cuts to companies that contribute labor to projects. They don’t have to take over the projects, just help them prosper for everyone.
