I'm the executive director at the [Free Software Foundation|http://www.fsf.org], and an administrator here on the Directory.

You can reach me at johns@fsf.org, or on the Discussion page here. I'm a subscriber to the directory-discuss mailing list as well.

If this is list is valuable to you, I'd appreciate a small donation to the FSF at https://donate.fsf.org.

Software I use often

My ideas for the Directory

  • Individuals listing software they use, linked to the Directory entries.
  • Make sure there is a good feedback loop, so that people are notified about entries they submit.
  • Make sure that the guidelines are presented during any transaction where someone submits a new entry or edits an existing one.
  • A healthy way of featuring particular programs, both on the Directory site itself and in the Free Software Supporter.
  • Wordpress and other blogging plugins that simplify auto-linking names of programs to their Directory entries
  • A healthy way of directing funding to appropriate places to help with listed project development
