+### 定义
-### Definitions {#definitions .subheading}
+*自由软件*事关自由,而非价格;宽泛地讲,这意味着用户有使用软件的自由和复制并再分发软件的自由,免费或收费。更精确地,其定义可用这四项基本自由[^1]公式化的来考察。为强调“free”一词指的是自由而非价格,我们经常把法语和西班牙语中的“libre”一词和“free”一起使用。
-### 定义 {#definitions .subheading}
-
-*Free software* is a matter of freedom, not price; broadly speaking, it
-means that users are free to use the software and to copy and
-redistribute the software, with or without changes. More precisely, the
-definition is formulated in terms of the four essential
-freedoms.[(1)](#FOOT1) To emphasize that “free” refers to freedom, not
-price, we often use the French or Spanish word “libre” along with
-“free.”
-
-*自由软件*事关自由,而非价格;宽泛地讲,这意味着用户有使用软件的自由和复制并再分发软件的自由,免费或收费。更精确地,其定义由四项基本自由[(1)](#FOOT1)公式化。为强调“free”一词指的是自由而非价格,我们经常把法语和西班牙语中的“libre”一词和“free”一起使用。
-
-Applying the same concept directly to hardware, *free hardware* means
-hardware that users are free to use and to copy and redistribute with or
-without changes. However, there are no copiers for hardware, aside from
-keys, DNA, and plastic objects’ exterior shapes. Most hardware is made
-by fabrication from some sort of design. The design comes before the
-hardware.
-
-将同样的概念直接应用于硬件,*自由硬件*意为用户有使用、复制和免费或收费地再分发的自由的硬件。然而,除了钥匙、DNA、和塑料制品的外观之外,没有用于硬件的复制器。大多数硬件是按照一定的设计装配出来。设计先于硬件存在。
-
-Thus, the concept we really need is that of a *free hardware design.*
-That’s simple: it means a design that permits users to use the design
-(i.e., fabricate hardware from it) and to copy and redistribute it, with
-or without changes. The design must provide the same four freedoms that
-define free software.
+将同样的概念直接应用于硬件,*自由硬件*意为用户有使用、复制和免费或收费地再分发硬件的自由。然而,除了钥匙、DNA、和塑料制品的外观之外,没有用于硬件的复制机制。大多数硬件是按照一定的设计装配出来。设计先于硬件存在。
因此,我们实际需要的概念是类似*自由硬件设计*的东西。很简单:其意指一种允许用户使用(即,在其指导下装配硬件)和复制并免费或收费地再分发的设计方案。这种设计方案必须提供和自由软件一致的四项基本自由。
-Then we can refer to hardware made from a free design as “free
-hardware,” or “free-design hardware” to avoid possible misunderstanding.
-
这样我们可以将按照自由的设计装配出的硬件说成“自由硬件”,或“设计自由的硬件”以避免可能的误解。
-People first encountering the idea of free software often think it means
-you can get a copy gratis. Many free programs are available for zero
-price, since it costs you nothing to download your own copy, but that’s
-not what “free” means here. (In fact, some spyware programs such as
-Flash Player and Angry Birds are gratis although they are not free.)
-Saying “libre” along with “free” helps clarify the point.[(2)](#FOOT2)
-
-首次接触自由软件思想的人们经常认为其含义是你可以免费获得一份副本。很多自由程序可以不要钱地获取,因为下载你自己的副本无需代价,但那不是“free”在此处的含义(事实上,有些间谍软件程序——例如Flash播放器和《愤怒的小鸟》——是免费的,尽管它们不自由)。将“libre”一词和“free”一起使用有助于澄清观点。
-
-For hardware, this confusion tends to go in the other direction;
-hardware costs money to produce, so commercially made hardware won’t be
-gratis (unless it is a loss-leader or a tie-in), but that does not
-prevent its design from being free/libre. Things you make in your own 3D
-printer can be quite cheap, but not exactly gratis since you will have
-to pay for the raw materials. In ethical terms, the freedom issue trumps
-the price issue totally, since a device that denies freedom to its users
-is worth less than nothing.
-
-对硬件,混淆趋于走向另一方向;硬件要花钱生产,故商业化生产硬件无法免费(除非是赔本赚吆喝或添头),但这并不妨碍其设计方案变得自由。由你的三维打印机生产出的东西可以非常便宜,但并非精确地免费因为你需要为原料付款。在道德方面,自由的问题完全压倒了价格问题,因为对其用户拒绝自由的设备还不如没有。
-
-The terms “open hardware” and “open source hardware” are used by some
-with the same concrete meaning as “free hardware,” but those terms
-downplay freedom as an issue. They were derived from the term “open
-source software,” which refers more or less to free software but without
-talking about freedom or presenting the issue as a matter of right or
-wrong.[(3)](#FOOT3) To underline the importance of freedom, we make a
-point of referring to freedom whenever it is pertinent; since “open”
-fails to do that, let’s not substitute it for “free.”
-
-由某些人使用的“开放硬件”和“开放源码硬件”的说法具有和“自由硬件”相同的具体含义,但这些说法降低了对自由的议题的重视。它们由“开放源码软件”的说法派生而来,其多少指的是自由软件,但缺少了对自由的讨论或将自由的议题展示为关乎对错的事[(3)](#FOOT3)。为着重自由的重要性,一旦关乎自由我们就要注意谈到自由;因为“开放”做不到这一点,让我们不要用它来取代“自由”一词。

-Hardware and software are fundamentally different. A program, even in
-compiled executable form, is a collection of data which can be
-interpreted as instruction for a computer. Like any other digital work,
-it can be copied and changed using a computer. A copy of a program has
-no inherent physical form or embodiment.
+### 硬件和软件
-硬件和软件在根本上不同。一个程序,即使取编译后的可执行形式,也是一组可被计算机解释为指令的数据的集合。和任何其他数字作品相同,它可以用计算机来复制和改写。程序的副本没有固有的物理形式或化身。

-By contrast, hardware is a physical structure and its physicality is
-crucial. While the hardware’s design might be represented as data, in
-some cases even as a program, the design is not the hardware. A design
-for a CPU can’t execute a program. You won’t get very far trying to type
-on a design for a keyboard or display pixels on a design for a screen.
-
-与之相对,硬件是一个物理构造且其物质性是关键。虽然硬件的设计可以表示为数据,甚至在某些场合下表示为程序,设计仍然不是硬件本身。CPU的设计不能执行程序。你基本上不可能试着用键盘的设计打字或在显示屏的设计上显示像素。
-
-Furthermore, while you can use a computer to modify or copy the hardware
-design, a computer can’t convert the design into the physical structure
-it describes. That requires fabrication equipment.

更进一步,虽然你可以用计算机来修改或复制一份硬件设计,计算机并不能将这份设计转化为其描述的物理结构。那需要装配设备。
-### The Boundary between Hardware and Software {#the-boundary-between-hardware-and-software .subheading}
-
-### 硬件和软件的边界 {#the-boundary-between-hardware-and-software .subheading}
-
-What is the boundary, in digital devices, between hardware and software?
-It follows from the definitions. Software is the operational part of a
-device that can be copied and changed in a computer; hardware is the
-operational part that can’t be. This is the right way to make the
-distinction because it relates to the practical consequences.
-
-在数字设备中,硬件和软件的边界是什么?它遵从其定义。软件是设备的可在计算机中修改和复制的运转部件,硬件是不可如此处理的运转部件。这是理清其区别的正确方法,因为关乎实践的后果。
+### 硬件和软件的边界
-There is a gray area between hardware and software that contains
-firmware that *can* be upgraded or replaced, but is not meant ever to be
-upgraded or replaced once the product is sold. In conceptual terms, the
-gray area is rather narrow. In practice, it is important because many
-products fall in it. We can treat that firmware as hardware with a small
-stretch.
+在数字设备中,硬件和软件的边界是什么?它遵从其定义。软件是计算机可以操作修改和复制的部分,而硬件则不可以。这是理清其区别的正确方法,因为关乎实际的后果。
-在硬件和软件之间有一个包含*可*被更新或替换,却并未打算在产品售出后更新或替换的固件的灰色地带。从概念上说,这个灰色地带十分狭窄。在实践上,它很重要,因为很多产品落在其中。我们可以把这样的固件看作硬件的小小延伸。
-
-Some have said that preinstalled firmware programs and
-Field-Programmable Gate Array chips (FPGAs) “blur the boundary between
-hardware and software,” but I think that is a misinterpretation of the
-facts. Firmware that is installed during use is software; firmware that
-is delivered inside the device and can’t be changed is software by
-nature, but we can treat it as if it were a circuit. As for FPGAs, the
-FPGA itself is hardware, but the gate pattern that is loaded into the
-FPGA is a kind of firmware.
+在硬件和软件之间有一个包含*可*被更新或替换,却并未打算在产品售出后更新或替换的灰色地带——固件(Firmware)。从概念上说,这个灰色地带十分狭窄。在实践上,它很重要,因为很多产品落在其中。我们可以把这样的固件看作硬件的小小延伸。
有人会说原装的固件程序和场效应可编程逻辑门阵列(FPGA)“模糊了硬件和软件的边界”,但我认为这是对事实的误读。在使用过程中安装的固件是软件;设备自带并不可修改的固件虽天生是软件,但我们可以把它当成一种电路。如对 FPGA,FPGA 本身是硬件,但加载到 FPGA 中的逻辑门模式是一种固件。
-Running free gate patterns on FPGAs could potentially be a useful method
-for making digital devices that are free at the circuit level. However,
-to make FPGAs usable in the free world, we need free development tools
-for them. The obstacle is that the format of the gate pattern file that
-gets loaded into the FPGA is secret. For many years there was no model
-of FPGA for which those files could be produced without nonfree
-(proprietary) tools.
-
-在 FPGA 上运行自由的逻辑门模式可以是一种使得数字设备从电路层变得自由的潜在地有效方法。然而为了使 FPGA 在自由世界中可用,我们需要为其设计的自由开发工具。其障碍是加载进 FPGA 的逻辑门模式文件的格式是秘密的。多年以来,没有一种 FPGA 的型号能够为其生成逻辑门模式文件而不需要不自由(私权)的工具。
-
-As of 2015, free software tools are available for programming the
-Lattice iCE40,[(4)](#FOOT4) a common model of FPGA, from input written
-in a hardware description language (HDL). It is also possible to compile
-C programs and run them on the Xilinx Spartan 6 LX9 FPGA with free
-tools,[(5)](#FOOT5) but those do not support HDL input. We recommend
-that you reject other FPGA models until they too are supported by free
-tools.

对 HDL 代码本身而言,它可以表现为软件(当运行于模拟器上或载入 FPGA 中),也可以表现为硬件设计(当实现为不可变的硅晶或电路板)。

-
-今天装配芯片和电路板的技术类似印刷业:它适于工厂中的大生产。比起在今天复制软件,它更类似在1950年复制书籍。
-
-Freedom to copy and change software is an ethical imperative because

-
-复制和修改软件的自由在道德上是必要的,因为那些活动对使用软件的人们来说是可行的:使你能使用软件的装备(计算机)同样适合用来复制和改写它。今天的移动计算机太弱小而难以适用于此,但任何人都能找到足够有力的计算机。
-
-Moreover, a computer suffices to download and run a version changed by

-You can’t build and run a circuit design or a chip design in your

-你不能在你的计算机上运行电路设计或芯片设计。构造大型电路是一系列艰苦的工作,而直到那时你才能拥有电路板。装配芯片在今天并不适合个人完成;只有大生产才能让它们足够便宜。以今天的硬件技术,用户们无法像运行软件黑客某甲(原文是John S Hacker——译者注)改造过的软件那样,下载并运行硬件黑客某乙(原文是John H Hacker——译者注)改造过的硬件设计。因此,四项基本自由无法像给与用户们对程序的集体控制那样给与对硬件设计的集体控制。这就是一切软件都必须自由的原因无法适用于硬件的地方。

-In 1983 there was no free operating system, but it was clear that if we

1983年没有自由的操作系统,但显然如果有了,我们可以立刻用上它并拥有软件自由。缺少的只是这样一个操作系统的代码。
-In 2014, if we had a free design for a CPU chip suitable for a PC,
-mass-produced chips made from that design would not give us the same

-
-在2014年,就算我们有了适用于 PC 的 CPU 芯片的自由设计,按此设计大生产出来的芯片也不能为我们在硬件界给与我们同样的自由。如果我们要买从工厂中大生产出来的产品,对工厂的依赖会引发大多数和非自由设计相同的问题。对给我们带来硬件自由的自由设计,我们需要未来的装配技术。
-
-We can envision a future in which our personal fabricators can make

-will all be able to take advantage of modified designs made by those who

-apply to nonfree hardware designs too.

-
-Free hardware designs offer practical advantages. Multiple companies can
-fabricate one, which reduces dependence on a single vendor. Groups can
-arrange to fabricate them in quantity. Having circuit diagrams or HDL
-code makes it possible to study the design to look for errors or
-malicious functionalities (it is known that the NSA has procured
-malicious weaknesses in some computing hardware). Furthermore, free
-designs can serve as building blocks to design computers and other
-complex devices, whose specs will be published and which will have fewer
-parts that could be used against us.

-Free hardware designs may become essential even before we can fabricate

-software. As common commercial hardware is increasingly designed to
-subjugate users, it becomes increasingly incompatible with free
-software, because of secret specifications and requirements for code to
-be signed by someone other than you. Cell phone modem chips and even
-some graphics accelerators already require firmware to be signed by the
-manufacturer. Any program in your computer, that someone else is allowed
-to change but you’re not, is an instrument of unjust power over you;
-hardware that imposes that requirement is malicious hardware. In the
-case of cell phone modem chips, all the models now available are
-malicious.

-自由硬件设计甚至可能会在我们能以个人之力装配硬件以前就变得至关重要,如果它成为阻止非自由软件的唯一方法。因为一般的商业硬件正越发设计得使用户屈服,由于秘密的规格,和需要代码被你以外的某人签名,它们越发不兼容于自由软件。蜂窝电话的调制解调器芯片和甚至一些图形加速器已经需要固件被制造者签名。任何在你计算机上许别人改但不许你改的程序,都是强加于你的不义强权的体现;强加了那种要求的硬件是恶意硬件。在蜂窝电话调制解调器芯片的场合,现在可用的所有型号都是恶意的。

-### 设计的层次 {#levels-of-design .subheading}
-
-Software has levels of implementation; a package might include
-libraries, commands and scripts, for instance. But these levels don’t
-make a significant difference for software freedom because it is
-feasible to make all the levels free. Designing components of a program
-is the same sort of work as designing the code that combines them;
-likewise, building the components from source is the same sort of
-operation as building the combined program from source. To make the
-whole thing free simply requires continuing the work until we have done
-the whole job.
-
-软件有实现的层次;例如,一个软件包可能包括库、命令和脚本。但这些层次对软件的自由没有明显的贡献,因为可以把所有这些层次都变得自由。设计程序的组件和设计把组件组合在一起的代码是同类的工作;与其类似,从源代码编译程序的组件和从源代码编译组合在一起的程序是同类的工作。使整个东西自由只需继续工作直到完成整件任务。
+### 设计的层次
-Therefore, we insist that a program be free at all levels. For a program
-to qualify as free, every line of the source code that composes it must
-be free, so that you can rebuild the program out of free source code
-alone.

-因此,我们坚持主张程序要在全部层次上自由。对一个被分类为自由软件的程序,组成它的每一行源代码都得是自由的,这样你才能只用自由的代码重建这个程序。

-Physical objects, by contrast, are often built out of components that
-are designed and build in a different kind of factory. For instance, a
-computer is made from chips, but designing (or fabricating) chips is
-very different from designing (or fabricating) the computer out of
-chips.
-
-与此相反,物理对象经常是由不同类型的工厂所设计制造的组件构造而成的。例如,计算机由芯片构成,但设计(或装配)芯片和从芯片设计(或装配)计算机是非常不同的。
-
-Thus, we need to distinguish *levels* in the design of a digital product
-(and maybe some other kinds of products). The circuit that connects the
-chips is one level; each chip’s design is another level. In an FPGA, the
-interconnection of primitive cells is one level, while the primitive
-cells themselves are another level. In the ideal future we will want the
-design be free at all levels. Under present circumstances, just making
-one level free is a significant advance.

因此,我们需要区分数字产品(可能还有其他类型的产品)的设计中的*层次*。连接芯片的电路是一个层次;每个芯片的设计是另一层次。在 FPGA 中,基本单元间的互联是一个层次,而基本单元本身是另一层次。理想的未来中我们会希望设计在所有层次上都是自由的。在当前状况下,仅仅使一个层次变得自由已经是一个明显的进步。
-However, if a design at one level combines free and nonfree parts—for
-example, a “free” HDL circuit that incorporates proprietary “soft
-cores”—we must conclude that the design as a whole is nonfree at that
-level. Likewise for nonfree “wizards” or “macros,” if they specify part
-of the interconnections of chips or programmably connected parts of
-chips. The free parts may be a step towards the future goal of a free
-design, but reaching that goal entails replacing the nonfree parts. They
-can never be admissible in the free world.
-
-然而,如果一个设计在一个层次上组合了自由和非自由的部分——例如,一个结合了私权的“软核”的“自由” HDL 电路——我们必须下结论说此设计作为一个整体在那个层次上是不自由的。类似地,对非自由的“向导”或“宏”,如果它们指的是芯片间的互联或芯片内部结构间的可编程互联的一部分。其自由部分可以是通向自由设计的未来目标的一个步骤,但到达那一目标需要把不自由的部分替换掉。它们在自由的世界中决不是可被接受的。

+### 自由硬件设计的许可和版权
你通过将一个硬件设计按照自由的许可发行来使其成为自由设计。我们建议您使用第三版或更新的 GNU 通用公共许可证。我们带着这种用途的视点设计了 GPL 第三版。
-Copyleft on circuits, and on nondecorative object shapes, doesn’t go as
-far as one might suppose. The copyright on these designs only applies to
-the way the design is drawn or written. Copyleft is a way of using
-copyright law, so its effect carries only as far as copyright law
-carries.
+在电路和非装饰性的物体外观上的左版(Copyleft),不会像想象一般获得成功。这些设计的版权仅适用于这些设计是如何被画出或写下的。左版是一种利用版权法的手段,所以其效果仅限于版权法起效的范围。

-
-For instance, a circuit, as a topology, cannot be copyrighted (and
-therefore cannot be copylefted). Definitions of circuits written in HDL
-can be copyrighted (and therefore copylefted), but the copyleft covers
-only the details of expression of the HDL code, not the circuit topology
-it generates. Likewise, a drawing or layout of a circuit can be
-copyrighted, so it can be copylefted, but this only covers the drawing
-or layout, not the circuit topology. Anyone can legally draw the same
-circuit topology in a different-looking way, or write a different HDL
-definition that produces the same circuit.
-
-例如,一个电路,作为一种拓扑关系,无法拥有版权(也因此无法被左版)。由 HDL 写成的电路定义可以拥有版权(因此可被左版),但左版只能保护这 HDL 代码的具体表达方式,而非依其生成的电路拓扑。与此类似,电路的图纸或布局可以拥有版权,因此可被左版,但仅仅保护图纸或布局本身,而非电路拓扑。任何人都可以以不同的外观画出同样的电路拓扑,或写出生成相同电路的不同 HDL 定义。
-
-Copyright doesn’t cover physical circuits, so when people build
-instances of the circuit, the design’s license will have no legal effect
-on what they do with the devices they have built.

版权不能保护物理电路,所以当人们构建电路的实例时,设计的许可证对他们能对他们构建出的设备做什么没有法律效力。
-For drawings of objects, and 3D printer models, copyright doesn’t cover
-making a different drawing of the same purely functional object shape.
-It also doesn’t cover the functional physical objects made from the
-drawing. As far as copyright is concerned, everyone is free to make them
-and use them (and that’s a freedom we need very much). In the US,
-copyright does not cover the functional aspects that the design
-describes,[(10)](#FOOT10) but does cover decorative aspects. When one
-object has decorative aspects and functional aspects, you get into
-tricky ground.[(11)](#FOOT11) All this may be true in your country as
-well, or it may not. Before producing objects commercially or in
-quantity, you should consult a local lawyer. Copyright is not the only
-issue you need to be concerned with. You might be attacked using
-patents, most likely held by entities that had nothing to do with making
-the design you’re using, and there may be other legal issues as well.
-
-对物件的图纸而言和三维打印模型而言,版权不能阻止以不同的方式绘制同样的功能性物体外观,它也不能保护按照图纸制造的功能性物质实体。只要版权被考虑到,每个人都可以自由地制造和使用它们(而这是我们十分需要的自由)。在美国,版权不涉及某个设计描述的功能特性[(10)](#FOOT10),但却涉及装饰特性。当一个物体既有装饰特性又有功能特性时,你将进入一个棘手的境地[(11)](#FOOT11)。这一切也许在你的国家也是如此,也许不是。在商业性或大量地生产物品前,你需要咨询当地的律师。你需要考虑的不只是版权。你可能会踩到专利地雷,其大部分被跟你正在使用的设计的诞生毫无关系的实体持有,而还可能有其他的法律问题。
-
-Keep in mind that copyright law and patent law are totally different. It
-is a mistake to suppose that they have anything in common. This is why
-the term “intellectual property” is pure confusion and should be totally

-
-For decorative objects, that argument does not apply, so we don’t have

-The repository should require all designs to be published as source
-code, and source code in secret formats usable only by proprietary
