The Free Software Database v. 250724.218 is online!

What's new?

We've transitioned away from Uploadcare CDN and Polyfill.io as those services were no longer owned by the original companies.
Since we've always used the Subresource Integrity (SRI) security technology, there has never been any risk, but they were causing occasional network delays.

This is only a patch and it will soon be followed by important improvements in the next days.

What to expect?

  1. We have decided to be more attentive to user feedback, so the indexed free or open source projects involved in abuses to the detriment of the free software volunteers will suffer a heavy and publicly visible penalty. They won't be removed, but a warning will be clearly visible, a permanent search engine penalty will be imposed and alternatives may be recommended.

  2. All resources will be associated with a developer, either a person or a project. The karma (reputation) of a software will now depend on the average reputation of the other resources by the same author. This will serve as useful indicator to those searching for a project to volunteer for.

  3. We plan to gradually reduce the dependency on Content Delivery Networks.
    This will have a positive impact on speed and privacy.
