La Terra del Software Libero è ancora piatta.
Credo sia evidente che l'autrice non abbia le idee chiare, dal momento che non un solo termine è usato in modo proprio: Software Libero, Open Source, Freeware e Pubblico Dominio non sono sinonimi. Shareware è un tipo di distribuzione per il software proprietario, ma nuovamente non è un sinonimo.
L'autrice si prefigge di valutare pro e contro dell'adozione nelle PA di Software Libero (e come tale si è sentita ugualmente libera di chiamarlo un po' come le passava per la testa: freeware, libero, open source, public domain) rispetto al software proprietario (chiamato "il classico shareware" nell'articolo).
Ho pensato quindi di buttar giù alcune considerazioni personali:
- E’ palese che le case produttrici di softwares coperti totalmente da copyright fanno sì che non vi sia una vera e propria concorrenza di prodotto, falsando il mercato e non consentendo una vera e realistica innovazione delle tecnologie impiegate: non credo che il problema sia il copyright, tanto che le sue leggi possono essere facilmente utilizzate per la tutela della libertà del software, come avviene nel copyleft. I brevetti software, quelli si, impediscono la concorrenza del mercato e l'innovazione, peccato si sia persa l'occasione per citarli nell'articolo originale!
- Il risultato è che i prodotti più recenti vengono modificati - rispetto a quelli precedenti - solo in alcuni aspetti tecnologicamente del tutto trascurabili, fermo restando che i nuovi standards sono spesso incompatibili con quelli venduti in precedenza dalla stessa casa produttrice: di certo milioni di menti pensano meglio di qualche migliaio, ma legare la chiusura del codice alla mancanza di aggiornamenti mi sembra eccessivo. La tendenza a cambiare continuamente i formati è purtroppo vera. Proprio la grande concorrenza fa si che vi sia una corsa continua alla funzione aggiuntiva rispetto al formato concorrente (o anche al proprio) senza attendere o neppure proporre una standardizzazione. Come sappiamo questa situazione sta lentamente cambiando.
- Il rischio maggiore per gli utenti è che, poiché il codice sorgente di tali prodotti è sempre e solo noto all’autore del programma shareware, possano venire inviati tramite Internet alcuni dati riservati provenienti dal computer su cui sono istallati, all’insaputa dell’acquirente: parole sacrosante. Questo fatto e l'apertura dei formati dei file sono il primo motivo perché una PA dovrebbe dotarsi di software libero, non il costo.
- L’autore concede all’utente il diritto di riprodurre ulteriormente un numero illimitato di copie, purché si tratti di una distribuzione gratuita: la libertà di distribuzione non è vincolata dal prezzo, nel software libero.
- Sempre nell’ambito del public domain, potrebbe sorgere un inconveniente fra programmi incompatibili, non permettendo un immediato riscontro sotto il profilo dell’interscambio di dati: l'incompatibilità non è un fenomeno da legarsi al software libero: tutt'altro. Quello che intende l'autrice è probabilmente qualcosa del tipo: "OpenOffice potrebbe non leggere i file di Word bene come Word". Questo è vero per QUALUNQUE programma, libero o no, che non sia Microsoft.
Il passaggio dal proprietario al libero è un'operazione che può essere lunga, difficile e costosa (si, costosa) e non la si può liquidare con la disinstallazione di Office in favore di software libero equivalente.
Una soluzione completamente libera, come dovrebbe essere adottata da una PA richiede grandi investimenti, studi di fattibilità, soluzioni personalizzate, deployment progressivo e controllato per essere sicuri che l'insieme delle funzioni necessarie e presenti nel vecchio software sia completamente coperto da quello nuovo.
Insomma non si usa software libero o open source perché a costo basso o zero, ma per essere certi di ciò che il programma fa (come ben indicato nell'articolo) ma anche per evitare il fenomeno dei formati incompatibili, o evitare l'effetto "millenium bug" cioè il panico per migliaia di programmi indispensabili ma chiusi richiedenti piccole modifiche ma di difficile attuazione perchè privi di sorgente.
A prescindere dalle numerose inesattezze, apprezzo l'autrice dell'articolo originale perché è comunque evidente la buona fede ed una sincera preoccupazione per la tematica e nonostante tutto, anche la comprensione del punto chiave della faccenda.
Queste mie righe sono solo di stimolo a parlare dell'argomento, ma a farlo in modo proprio, pena il rischio di diventare controproducenti. E' bene che chi si accinge a diffondere certe tematiche, magari allontanandosi dal proprio settore di competenza, sappia che esistono siti come questo o questo dai quali attingere preziose informazioni. Inoltre è presente sul territorio una fitta rete di organizzazioni come i Linux User Group nati proprio per diffondere ed assistere la cultura del Software Libero e dell'Open Source. Questi gruppi sono animati da volontari ben disposti ad offrire le proprie competenze, spesso in forma gratuita, a chi ne fa richiesta.
Se desiderate che la vostra organizzazione migri verso soluzioni libere ed aperte o semplicemente vi state chiedendo quali potrebbero essere i vantaggi di questa operazione, un consulto con alcune di queste associazioni è un ottimo punto di partenza.

Hmm it seems like your site ate my first comment (it was super long) so
I guess I’ll just sum it up what I wrote and say, I’m
thoroughly enjoying your blog. I as well am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to everything.
Do you have any suggestions for rookie blog writers?
I’d really appreciate it.
novembre 25th, 2018 - 22:59
It’s difficult to find knowledgeable people on this subject, however, you sound like you know what you’re talking about!
Thanks

I comment when I like a article on a blog or I have something to valuable to contribute to
the conversation. It is triggered by the fire displayed in the post
I browsed. And on this post La Terra del Software Libero
è ancora piatta. « CoM – Il Blog di Carlo Becchi.
I was excited enough to drop a thought I do have 2 questions for you if it’s okay.
Is it only me or do some of these comments appear as if they are written by brain dead individuals?
And, if you are posting at additional online social sites,
I would like to keep up with you. Could you list every one of all your public
sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
novembre 30th, 2018 - 01:15

why the opposite specialists of this sector do not realize this.

I was curious if you ever considered changing the
page layout of your website? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so
people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot
of text for only having 1 or 2 images. Maybe you
could space it out better?
novembre 30th, 2018 - 17:54
This site was… how do I say it? Relevant!!
Finally I have found something that helped me.

I’d really love to be a part of community where I can get responses from other knowledgeable people that share the same interest.
If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Cheers!

First of all I would like to say excellent blog! I had
a quick question in which I’d like to ask if you do not mind.
I was interested to find out hoow you center yourself and clear your mind prior to writing.
I’ve had trouble clearing my mind in getting my ideas out there.
I do enjoy writing however iit just seems like the first 10 to 15 minjutes are generally lost
simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or tips?
Kudos!

With havin so much content do you ever run into any
problems of plagorism or copyright violation? My blog has a lot of completely
unique content I’ve either created myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of
it is popping it up all over the internet without my agreement.
Do you know any techniques to help stop content from being
stolen? I’d certainly appreciate it.

Unquestionably believe that which you stated. Your favorite justification appeared to be on the web the
easiest thing to be aware of. I say to you,
I definitely get annoyed while people think about worries that they just
don’t know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and defined out the whole thing
without having side effect , people could take a signal.
Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

What you said made a great deal of sense. But,
what about this? suppose you added a little information? I mean, I don’t wish to tell you how to run your blog,
however what if you added something that makes people want more?
I mean La Terra del Software Libero è ancora piatta. « CoM –
Il Blog di Carlo Becchi is a little plain. You might glance at Yahoo’s
home page and see how they create article titles to get
viewers interested. You might add a related video or a related
pic or two to get readers excited about everything’ve got to say.
Just my opinion, it might make your blog a little bit more interesting.

Hallo zusammen & einen schönen Samstag!Ich, Mario Kainzbauer und meine Networker starten gerade ein neues
Projekt und haben uns entschieden im BitClubNetworkordentlich Gas zu geben.Ein paar Fakten:Im BitClubNetwork kann man ausschließlich mit Bitcoin Ein- und Auszahlen.BitClubNetwork gibt
es seit 2 Jahren.BitCoin ist eine weltweite, globale Währung die immer mehr als Zahlungsmittel für Waren und
Dienstleistungen angenommen wird.Die ersten Bitcoins gab es 2009 und hatten einen Wert von ein paar lausigen Cents, mittlerweile ist der Kurs bei 430$ und steigt auf lange Zeit betrachtet stetig an.Hier ein Link um die Wertentwicklung in USD genauer betrachten zu können.https://blockchain.info/de/charts/market-priceBitcoin hat sich als Kryptowährung im Internet etabliert und
die Prognosen sagen dass aufgrund der hohen Nachfrage der
Kurs bis 2020 explodieren wird.Bis 2020 ist noch etwas
Zeit aber wir wollen rechtzeitig starten da im Juni der Blockreward halbiert wird und dies
einen Kursanstieg zur Folge haben wird.Wenn auch du dich für Bitcoins interessierst und das Potential dieser digitalen Währung erkannt hast, dann bin ich gerne bereit dir deine restlichen Fragen zu Bitcoins und dem BitClubNetwork
zu beantworten und dir zu helfen eine gute Downline aufzubauen.Hier der Link zum BitClubNetwork:http://de.bitclub.network/bey0ndDurch den Binären Strukturvertrieb und die Flexibilität
in im Aufbau des Networks profitiert man von einer guten Upline.Überprüf gerne die Website
von BitClubNetwork und informiere dich, es ist ein äußerst gutes Unternehmen mit wachsender Mitgliederanzahl und
je höher diese ist, desto mehr Bitcoins bekommen alle Beteiligten.Für
weitere Fragen:email: mario.kainzbauer@gmail.comSkype: mario.kainzbauerWenn du
wirklich Gas geben willst im Network und von einem guten Team profitieren willst, melde
dich und wir können alle deine Fragen per Skype oder Email klären.Ansonsten noch einen schönen Samstag und have a nice profit.Liebe Grüße,
Mario Kainzbauer

Hi there fantastic website! Does running a blog similar to this require a massive amount work?

I do trust all the concepts you’ve offered to your post.
They’re really convincing and can certainly work.
Still, the posts are very brief for beginners. May you please extend them a bit from next
time? Thanks for the post.
