Huh??? It seems since the goal of Sugarizer is to make it available FREE to run on "any device" that includes iPhones, Windows devices, etc. This comment of his doesn't make any sense! What about FREE/Libre software doesn't he understand???

P.S. I proudly run Sugarizer on my iPhone!

Hi Samson,

I hope you will have a successful travel.

Thanks Sebastian.

As a member of Sugar Labs and one of the signataries of our Fiscal Sponsorship Agreement with the Software Freedom Conservancy<https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/images/f/fa/AmendedFSASugar.pdf> I would appreciate if during your trip you would remember that we have a duty as a Conservancy Project to respect its "organizational mission and charitable goal to promote, improve, develop and defend
Free, Libre, and Open Source Software projects."

Keep in mind we agreed (section 2b) : "The Project Will Be Free Software. Conservancy and the Oversight Board agree that any
and all software and/or documentation distributed by the Project will be distributed solely as Free Software." (emphasis added).

It would be a sad thing (if not a breach of contract) if the community (as represented by you) would present itself as indifferent to these values.

Your mentioning Facebook, iPhone, Windows, Flash, LinkedIn etc, do not fit with this agreement, so we would sincerely appreciate if you do not promote these entities while representing Sugar Labs.

Could you explain more, because i dont understand. And also how did you think i might breach the agreement?

Regards,

Sebastian
