changing the source code to do whatever you need to do. And the

other people. Also the freedom to help build your community, by
publishing improved versions so that other people can use them.

advantages of free software. That's good as far as it goes, but it
only scratches the surface of the issue. They carefully avoid raising
the issues of freedom, community, and principle. The Free Software
movement raises these deeper issues.
