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 blog recaps the work we accomplished at the Friday, July 28th, 2017 meeting.

It was a very special Directory meeting this time, since it coincided with the eighteenth annual SysAdmin Day. This day gives us a moment to collectively pause and acknowledge the invaluable work done by these individuals. With that said, we'd like to give a special shout out to quidam, sudoman, and iank, who all strive tirelessly to keep the FSF running smoothly.

This week also saw alkamod providing the program for a new entry. The most relevant point is that this program provides license-checking from repositories, as well as other valuable features.

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. EDT (16:00 to 19:00 UTC).
