* Introduction
Freedombone consists of a set of bash scripts. There are a lot of them, but they're not very complicated. If you're familiar with the GNU/Linux commandline and can hack a bash script then you can probably add a new app or fix a bug in the system. There are no trendy development frameworks to learn or to get in your way.
* Community Statement
This project doesn't require you to take any special pledge of allegiance or subscribe to any guru's list of commandments. It does not care about your gender, race, national flag or political alignment. It is agnostic towards your religion or lack thereof. It doesn't give one hoot as to whether you are young or old, rich or poor, gay, trans, straight or just "other". It does not care if you like your eggs sunny side up or if you are a vegan.
* Substitute for a Code of Conduct
Instead of having some tedious /Code of Conduct/ which tries to micro-manage how folks communicate privately with each other this project has a set of guiding principles, which are as follows:
This is an inclusive project which will take patches or pull requests from anyone, in a generous manner along the lines described by the late Pieter Hintjens in his book /Social Architecture/. Any useful patch is likely to be merged so long as it is submitted under a license compatible with AGPL3. Copyright assignment is not required.
* Enable users to help themselves to provide their own personal software infrastructure.
* Enable users to help each other to provide software infrastructure for a community.
* There should be no single point of failure. Assume that other servers can and will fail occasionally.
* Respect other users right to run their own stuff and have their own policies on their own hardware.
* Remove as many intermediating organisations as possible. For example, Google tracking embedded within some Free Software apps.
* No tollbooths, rent-seeking, gatekeepers or paywalls.
* Maximize energy efficiency. No systems which fundamentally depend upon proof-of-work block solving. The target here is small single board computers.
Freedombone is a free system. That's free as in no secret source. For anything. Although there's nothing to stop you from adding proprietary utilities or apps if you wish, any patches containing closed stuff or which create dependencies upon closed systems will be regarded as trash and ignored.
This project also has a no bullshit policy. Anyone trying to cause a ruckus by trolling or engaging in behavior which is disruptive or disrespectful to others will be speedily blocked and ignored. Life's too short, and there's too much to be done.
* Adding extra apps
Suppose you have some internet application which you want to add to the system. To do this you need to create an app script which tells the system how to install/remove and also backup/restore. The script should be designed to work with the current stable version of Debian.
