Free"Libra" Software

first let's ask this question..

How does software work ?..source code

Historically software was for free !

for this reasons and more came what we called Free Software Foundation’s which established by Richard M Stallman. Also came alongside the GNU General Public License (GNU GPL).

His first goal was to create free UNIX-like software.

After some time came the concept OPEN SOURCE as an attempt to push 'free software' into business.

Another kind of software is "Proprietary software " closed software".

For example:(Ms-Windows/MacOs/Ms-Office/ Internet explore) etc..
