Every week free software activists from around the world come together in #fsf on irc.freenode.org to help improve the Free Software Directory. This recaps the work we accomplished at the Friday, January 6th, 2017 meeting.

Last week's theme was drafting new entries. We focused on finding new and useful software to add to the Directory. One example of this is a search engine that provides instantaneous system-wide results. We had a very productive meeting, adding and updating over 50 entries.

We also had numerous volunteers looking to update and create entries. mangeurdenuage, ‎Alejandroindependiente and ‎Genium all contributed greatly. We had a new volunteer show up, mwalim, he updated his own program and began to work on some historical entries.

If you would like to help update the directory, meet with us every Friday in #fsf on irc.freenode.org from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. EST (17:00 to 20:00 UTC).
