-> particular software program qualifies as free software. From time to
-> time we revise this definition, to clarify it or to resolve questions
-> about subtle issues. For a list of the changes we’ve made to the
-> definition of free software, please see the “History” section,

-> 自由软件的定义是一系列特定标准的软件。通过不断的修改这一定义,可以让我们更好的澄清和解决与之相关的各种问题。有关自由软件的变化,可以参考<http://gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html>中定义下面的“历史”一节。
-
-“Free software” means software that respects users’ freedom and
-community. Roughly, it means that **the users have the freedom to run,
-copy, distribute, study, change and improve the software.** Thus, “free
-software” is a matter of liberty, not price. To understand the concept,
-you should think of “free” as in “free speech,” not as in “free beer.”
-We sometimes call it “libre software” to show we do not mean it is
-gratis.
+> 自由软件的定义给出了一个标准,即一个特定的软件是否有资格被称为自由软件。我们时不时修改这一定义,以的澄清和解决与之相关的各种细微问题。对于我们自由软件的定义所作的更改列表,请参阅“历史”部分,在http://gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html。
-“自由软件”(Free Software)表示的是那些尊重用户和社群自由的软件。粗略的说,它表示**用户有运行、拷贝、再发行、学习、修改并改进软件的自由**。因此,“自由软件”是有关用户自由权益(liberty),而不是指免费(free)的价格。为了理解这个概念,你需要将“free”一词理解成“言论自由”中的“自由”,而不是“免费啤酒”里的“免费”。有时我们会称之为“Libre Software”,以避免表示免费的意思。

-We campaign for these freedoms because everyone deserves them. With

-program controls the users, and the developer controls the program; this

-我们争取这些自由,盖因为每个人都应该拥有这些。有了这些自由,用户(包括个体和团体)就可以控制程序为己所用。当用户无法控制程序时,我们称之为“非自由”(Nonfree)或“专有”程序。非自由的程序控制了用户,而开发者控制着程序:这就让程序成为了非正义权力的帮凶[^1]。
