SFC ikukonzekera mlandu wotsutsana ndi omwe akuphwanya GPL ndipo ipanga njira ina ya firmware

Software Freedom Conservancy (SFC) представила njira yatsopano yowonetsetsa kuti zikutsatira zofunikira za laisensi ya GPL pazida zomwe firmware yake idamangidwa pa Linux. Kuti akwaniritse zomwe akufuna, bungwe la ARDC Foundation (Amateur Radio Digital Communications) lapereka kale ndalama zokwana madola 150 zikwi ku bungwe la SFC.

Ntchito ikukonzekera kuchitika m'njira zitatu:

• Kukakamizika opanga kuti azitsatira GPL ndikuchotsa zophwanya zomwe zilipo.
• Kugwira ntchito ndi mabungwe ena kulimbikitsa lingaliro lakuti kutsata malonda ndi GPL ndi mfundo yofunika kwambiri poteteza zinsinsi ndi ufulu wa ogula.
• Kupititsa patsogolo ntchito Firmware Liberation kuti mupange firmware ina.

Malinga ndi Bradley M. Kuhn, mkulu wa bungwe la SFC, zoyesayesa zam'mbuyomu zokhutiritsa GPL kutsatiridwa kudzera mu maphunziro ndi kuzindikira zalephera ndipo tsopano pali kunyalanyaza kutsata kwa GPL mumakampani a zida za IoT. Kuti tituluke mumkhalidwewu, akuti agwiritse ntchito njira zokhwima zamalamulo kuti ophwanya malamulo aziyankha chifukwa cholephera kutsatira ziphaso za copyleft.

Pogwiritsa ntchito kachidindo ka copyleft-licensed muzogulitsa zake, wopanga, kuti asunge ufulu wa pulogalamuyo, amayenera kupereka code source, kuphatikizapo code ya ntchito zotumphukira ndi malangizo oyika. Popanda kuchita zoterezi, wogwiritsa ntchitoyo amalephera kulamulira pulogalamuyo. Kuti mukonze zolakwika paokha, chotsani magwiridwe antchito osafunikira kuti muteteze zinsinsi zawo, kapena m'malo mwa firmware, wogwiritsa ntchito ayenera kusintha ndikukhazikitsanso mapulogalamu pazida.

M'chaka chathachi, SFC yazindikira kuphwanya kwa GPL ndi makampani opanga zamagetsi ophatikizidwa, omwe sizingatheke kuti agwirizane nawo ndipo sangathe kuchita popanda milandu. Dongosololi ndikusankha m'modzi mwa ophwanyawa omwe sapereka ma code okwanira kuti amangenso ndikuyika Linux, ndikukonza zoyeserera ku United States. Ngati wozengedwayo achiritsa kuphwanya, akwaniritsa zofunikira zonse, ndipo akupereka chitsimikiziro chotsatira GPL mtsogolomo, SFC yakonzeka kumaliza mlanduwo nthawi yomweyo.

Kuphatikiza pakugwira ntchito yokakamiza kutsatira GPL, pulojekiti ya Firmware Liberation ikukonzekera kusankha gulu linalake lazinthu kuchokera m'gulu la mayankho ophatikizidwa ku Linux ndikupanga firmware ina yaulere kwa iwo, kutengera code yomwe idatsegulidwa ndi wopanga ngati zotsatira zochotsa kuphwanya kwa GPL, monga momwe zinalili kale Ntchito ya OpenWrt idapangidwa kutengera nambala ya firmware ya WRT54G. Pamapeto pake, chidziwitso chopanga ma projekiti opambana ngati OpenWrt и SamyGo, ikukonzekera kusamutsa kumagulu ena azipangizo.

Zadziwika kuti SFC yazindikira kuphwanya kwa GPL mu Linux firmware pazida monga mafiriji, ma nannies apakompyuta, othandizira, zomangira, mabelu apakhomo, makamera oteteza, makina amagalimoto, zolandila AV ndi ma TV. Kupanga ma firmware ena a zida zotere, kapena kujowina mphamvu ndi mapulojekiti omwe alipo kale kuti apange firmware ina yomwe imalepheretsedwa ndi kusapezeka kwa zosintha zapazidazi, zipangitsa kuti ogwiritsa ntchito azitha kumasuka.
