From 1b20b496d2fb49c457e8d9faa099abbb1ece10c5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Stallman Date: Mon, 14 Nov 2022 18:44:52 +0100 Subject: Maneage: clarified the definition of Maneage being a program Until now, we hadn't clearly defined what we mean by Maneage being a program. So viewers of the page could get confused. With this commit, that old sentence was replaced by a new one written by Richard Stallman in a private email (hence why he is the commit author and Mohammad, who pasted it inside of 'index.html', is the committer). --- index.html | 5 ++++- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'index.html') diff --git a/index.html b/index.html index 9d619d3..5bd26d4 100644 --- a/index.html +++ b/index.html @@ -81,7 +81,10 @@ The name "Maneage" is a portmanteau; created by merging the first three characters of "manage" with the last four characters of "lineage".

Maneage is free software and released under GNU GPL v3+. - An important principle of Maneage is that it is a "program" (you download a copy of it and install it on your own machine and use your own copy). + Maneage is a program, not a service. + This means that you download a copy of Maneage and install a copy on your own machine. + Then your copy does the work. Since Maneage is free/libre software, you can change your copy. + Therefore, you have full control over what it does. To learn more about its founding criteria and a basic introduction, see Akhlaghi et al. (CiSE 2021, vol 23, issue 3, pp 82-91), also available as arXiv:2006.03018 (with extended appendix in one PDF: the recommended format). Maneage is a recipient of the RDA Europe Adoption grant and was featured in a Nature Astronomy "News and Views" article (Kuttel 2021, free-to-read link).
