This is the Free Widget Foundation widget release, a collection of no-cost,
|
||
|
|
freely redistributable X graphical user interface widgets.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Free Widget Foundation is a grass-roots, all-volunteer effort.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Free Widget Foundation project was started summer 1990 in order to collect
|
||
|
|
existing widgets in a well-publicized location to prevent duplication of
|
||
|
|
effort. Numerous people have expressed interest in submitting widgets to the
|
||
|
|
collection. The collection process is going slowly because of lack of time
|
||
|
|
and organizational needs. The "Free Widget Foundation" is a pun on the "Free
|
||
|
|
Software Foundation" title. While the two organizations share some similar
|
||
|
|
goals, that is the improvement of the quality and quantity of
|
||
|
|
freely-redistributable public software, this organization is in no way related
|
||
|
|
to the Free Software Foundation or the GNU projects. In fact, we aren't even
|
||
|
|
a "foundation" in the legal meaning of the word.
