This way, the french people involved in the FSFE effort should propagate the "logiciel libre" (or libre logiciel) term, which explains clearly that freedom what it's all about.
Is this actually the case? I do hope so, although my French is not sufficiently good to recognise it ;)) To me, "logiciel libre" could also have other implications - to an Englishmen's ears something like that has a more similar meaning to something such as "animaux libre" (help! the chickens have escaped!!), etc. ;)) It sounds like the software has escaped and is running around ;)) But as I said, that's probably my poor French!!
Interesting comment indeed... Well... actually, I don't think that one would really see the logiciel libre as a logiciel which has escaped (fear !)... but who knows what lambda user will imagine ;) with all these viruses around, better be carefull... What if crazy cows had contaminated software !! ... time to switch off :)
Best regards.
