This situation saddens me too... Our purpose is to promote accessible free 
software to make the freedom brought by free softwares accessible for everyone, 
regardless one's ability. 

We will not change the name neither the domain name, because it makes sense to 
us. But we could find a way to conciliate our respective goals. 

I already proposed to Richard to check if our presentation of our association's 
goal is explicit enough, not ambiguous and doesn't create confusion with the 
freedom #0 of the GPL license. This proposition remains. 

I don't see what more we could do, except changing our mission, which is not 
possible, because it's fair and too many people count on us now. 

Freedom is the necessary basis for "Liberté", accessibility is the essential 
part to achieve "Égalité" and "Fraternité".

We will continue to promote Free Software anyway. Hope you will help us to 
promote it for everyone.  

Librement,
Armony
