Introducing OpenStreetView

Hi mvexel, thanks for your quick answer. I’m wondering about the F-Droid app… why not right here , where anyone can see the other ones?

And, about the social networks, why not to write at this post too: “and at Diaspora, if you’re into that kind of thing…”? It’s maybe because you haven’t a profile there, because you don’t want to spend time but with the proprietary ones? = (

I’m not criticising, I only want to make you pay attention over our brother-sisters free software developers, to treat all our works as a whole for the people who watch the FOSS from outside. If the people can see that, wherever they look, there are beautiful projects working in the same direction (freedom), maybe they understand that this is working well and many people think this is the best way to use the Web, the data and the electronics that surround us. And, this way, I think we will be more and more people doing the same: free software for a free society. Ain’t it great?

I’m sorry if I don’t explain right myself, english is not my first language… Thanks for your time!

And I can find the app at Google App Store -or whatever its name is now- but not at F-Droid… I expect too much from ourselves? Isn’t it about free software -as in freedom- that we work together?

I have seen at this page two references to hard proprietary software already. One, Facebook (and the other classic brands, same style: Google and so on) and, now, brand logos about Android and App Store from Mac. No F-Droid, no GnuSocial, Diaspora or else? Shouldn’t we offer a wider vision about what the web and free data is, what it offer to us?

Always you consider what I say coming from my deepest admiration for your work and dedication. I try to contribute so the community do things better.

Greetings again.

I think this is a real great job and I can’t wait to start to contribute!! Thank you very much, for being so good workers and do it for all of us.

I only want to make a point. It’s not preferable to not propose communication through Facebook, being us people who want a free world? It’s only my opinion, maybe I’m wrong (but I thing I’m not…).

Greetings and a big hug!
