Sifinyelela engxenyeni yesithathu ye-biography kaStallman. Sasihambile kumsunguli wokunyakaza kweSoftware Yamahhala ezama ukucekela phansi isiko elisha elivaliwe neliphezulu labasebenzi abasha be-MIT. Lo mkhankaso awuzange ube yimpumelelo njengoba abasebenzi abasha ababeqashiwe bengenandaba nokuhlela.
Kunezindaba ezimbili ezingqubuzanayo mayelana nokuthi yini eholele i-RMS ukuthi yethule ukunyakaza kwesoftware yamahhala.. Kulesi sihloko sizobuyekeza kokubili.
Ingxenye yesithathu ye-biography kaStallman
Indaba yokuqala ikhuluma ngokuthukuthela kuka-Stallman lapho enqatshelwa ukufinyelela ikhodi yomthombo yephrinta entsha yelebhu. U-Stallman ulungise iphrinta yangaphambilini ukuze ithumele umlayezo kubo bonke abasebenzisi ibazisa ukuthi iphepha beliboshiwe noma iyiphi idokhumenti ephrintwayo. Njengoba iphrinta yayikwesinye isitezi, lezi zinguquko zazidingeka, kodwa kwakungenakwenzeka ukuzenza.
Enye inguqulo, etshelwe nguStallman ngokwakhe, ithi iziphathimandla ezintsha zelabhorethri zinqume ukushiya ukuthuthukiswa kwangaphakathi kwesofthiwe futhi ziqashe enye indlela yokuhweba. lUkunephutha kwalesi sinqumo kwafakazelwa lapho kungekho muntu owakwazi ukuxhuma imishini ngesikhathi esisodwa kunethiwekhi yangaphakathi yenyuvesi kanye nenethiwekhi yangaphandle ye-ARPANET. Futhi umhlinzeki wesofthiwe akazange abe nentshisekelo yokwenza kanjalo.
I-RMS ikholelwa ukuthi inqubomgomo yezokuphepha yalolu hlelo ayizange nje ivimbele ukwenziwa kwamaphutha, iphinde ivimbele labo abakwazi ukuwalungisa ukuthi bawalungise. Sesivele sishilo ngomzamo wokucekela phansi ohlulekile esihlokweni esandulele.
Ukuzalwa kwe-GNU
Lezi zinguquko kanye nomkhuba okhulayo wokuvala ikhodi yesofthiwe kwaholela uStallman esinqumweni sokuyeka ukusebenzela ilabhorethri (nakuba ahlala exhumene nayo) futhi aqale ukusebenza ohlelweni lokusebenza olwakhiwe kusukela ekuqaleni. Le sistimu izofana ne-Unix ukuze kube lula ukushintshwa kwabasebenzisi. I-GNU isifinyezo esiphindaphindayo izinhlamvu zayo zingamagama okuqala esiNgisi e-GNU Ayiyona i-Unix.
Ngisho noma ngangihlela ukwakha uhlelo lokusebenza, ngangingenanhloso yokwenza yonke into kusukela ekuqaleni. Ebheka amathuluzi angasetshenziswa mahhala, ubuze umthuthukisi we-Free University Compilation Kit ukuthi angayisebenzisa yini. Njengoba ebeke umbandela wokuthi noma yini uStallman ayidala nalowo mdidiyeli kufanele ameme abantu ukuthi bayithenge, i-RMS yanquma ukungayisebenzisi. Kunalokho, wazakhela eyakhe inhlanganisela esekelwe kukhodi yamahhala ye-Pastel compiler, nakumhleli wombhalo owaziwa yiwo wonke umuntu, i-Emacs.
I-Emacs nayo yayisekelwe kumhleli, kodwa ikhodi yayo yashintshwa kangangokuthi lapho iba ubunikazi yayingasenandaba ngoba cishe akukho lutho olwasala lweyokuqala.
I-Free Software Foundation
Nakuba isistimu yokusebenza yayingakaze itholakale, amathuluzi adlale indima ebalulekile ekuzalweni kweLinux kanye neFreeBSD.
Ngokuqiniseka ukuthi ukubhala ikhodi akwanele, U-Stallman wanquma ukuyinikeza ukufakwa kwesikhungo futhi ngo-1985 wadala i-Free Software Foundation. I-FSF yazalwa njengenhlangano engenzi nzuzo ngenhloso yokuqinisekisa ukuthi wonke amathuluzi nohlelo lokusebenza lwesikhathi esizayo luhlala lukhululekile kubo bonke abafisa ukulisebenzisa.
Ukuze lokhu kwenzeke Ngo-1989, kwasungulwa ithuluzi elisemthethweni, i-General Public License (GPL). I-GPL iyona enikeza amalungelo kubasebenzisi bokugcina (Abantu nezinhlangano) inkululeko yokufunda, ukusebenzisa, ukulungisa nokwabelana ngesofthiwe.
Eminyakeni yamuva nje uStallman akazange abe ngaphandle kwengxabano. Omunye wanqunywa ukuthi uyisilima, umbuzo wokuthi wayenalo yini ilungelo lokusebenzisa igama likadokotela.Elinye kwakuyingxubevange yobuwula nesithakazelo sezomnotho. Abanye ababambiqhaza basebenzise isiko elikhulayo lokukhansela ukuzama ukushintsha izinqubomgomo zeFree Software Foundation.
Mina ngokwami ngayigxeka emasontweni ambalwa edlule kwenye ibhulogi. Umbono wami uthi ubengeyena umuntu ofanele ukuhola iFree Software Foundation futhi bekumele alingise uLinus Torvalds ashiye ingxenye yesikhungo kwezinye izandla. Nokho, Ngiyazi ukuthi uma kungekho ongikhumbulayo nabanye abagxekayo, abantu bazoqhubeka nokukhuluma ngoStallman.
