The @DLR (German Aerospace Center) has adopted the #REUSE specification in some of its projects. 🌌🛰

We have talked with @schlauch, research software engineer at the DLR, about the role of #FreeSoftware for research, innovation, and the importance of a clear understanding and displaying of the legal information of software projects.

Wish you all a good time on 17 August with the book reading of Ada & #Zangemann by Bonnie and the #Reuse talk by @Tobias

Do you maintain a #FreeSoftware project? Is taking care of proper licensing is important for you and your users?
Following our #REUSE standards will take most of the load off your shoulders.

sudo apt install reuse

📢 The #REUSE initiative helps you understand what licence a file is under and who owns the copyright.

⚙️ It consists of a set of best practices & a tool that makes it easy to add this legal information to every single file in your #FreeSoftware project.

Did you know that the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) provides individual assessments & direct assistance to #FreeSoftware projects in the implementation of the #REUSE best practices?

The CEO from @gnuhealth explains in this video why REUSE is a 🔝 tool.
