Team FREDNET

I really think Team FREDNET is a great thing. I compare the people involved and any government agencies to operating systems like Linux and Microsoft Windows. Linux being equal to Team FREDNET and the government equal to Microsoft Windows.

Linux is open source software just as Team FREDNET and is open to anybody that wants to join and make it better. There are no costs to get in just as there are really no costs to get Linux. Linux is open source and so is Team FREDNET. When Team FREDNET say’s that they are open source they mean anybody from any country, race, and age may join their forum. If you have a useful contribution that you may be able to put forth in their project they are open to your help. If not they will accept donations for their experimental program as they are not funded by any government agency. These are just average people like you and I (some smarter than others maybe) that are funding this project and building it.
I compare Windows operating system as being equal to the government. Windows is locked down by licensing trap. It is costly to purchase and not open source. Someone who may not be as well off as others might not be able to afford to buy the software. If they are really smart they may have means to make the software much better, but since it is not open source legally they would not be able to without working for Microsoft themselves. The government has done so with NASA. In the United States NASA is really the only agency that does space exploration and can fly crafts out of our orbit.

I found myself spending some time reading Team FREDNET’s website. If I was smart enough and had some sort of engineering degree I would probably get involved somehow. But since I am not I am still able to sit back and watch as they offer their forum to anybody that wants to sign up and join and that I did. It has been longer than 48 hours since I have received my logon but since the program is run by very few people I can understand if they are busy with other things. I would definitely donate $20 or so myself. If average people like us could get family and friends to donate I am sure they would reach their funding goal they need. If more people cared about their future and the mind power of the average people and their capabilities the world would be a much greater place.
