### Escape to Freedom now also available in Mandarin and Spanish

*From August 16*

*Escape to Freedom* is the animated video from the Free Software
Foundation giving an introduction to the concepts behind
software freedom: both what we gain by having it, and what rights are
at stake. The video focuses on protagonist Zara, which allows viewers
to relate to her challenges and concerns. And now we now have it 
video available in Mandarin and Spanish language tracks. The [free software
awareness videos](https://www.fsf.org/videos) have already reached 
thousands of viewers. Let's continue to get the word out by sharing them 
widely.

### A gold record year for SecuRepairs and the Right to Repair

*From August 29 by Paul Roberts* 

Right to Repair activists, and the SecuRepairs group of
pro-repair IT and information security professionals had many
bright spots in the last year. And, as Paul Roberts writes in this
article, "in the midst of all that, our intrepid group landed some
important kudos from one of the most important organizations
fighting for a free, fair and equitable Internet: The Free
Software Foundation. FSF named SecuRepairs the winner of its
Award for Projects of Social Benefit for 2021."

### FFDW Grant & DWebCamp: Our decentralized community industry debut

*From August 17 by Spritely Institute*

Filecoin Foundation for the Decentralized Web (FFDW) has
announced an award to Spritely Networked Communities Institute
(Spritely Institute) to support the creation of free 
standards for decentralized social media. Spritely's mission is to put
people directly in control of their online identities and
relationships, and this award will further the organization's efforts.
Christine Lemmer-Webber (GNU Mediagoblin) and Randy Farmer 
are the institute's founders.

### XScreenSaver was released thirty years ago

*From August 17 by Jamie Zawinski*

XScreenSaver, the familiar screensaver that comes preinstalled on many
GNU/Linux distributions, just had its thirtieth anniversary. The
original author reminisces about its development and life thus far,
and shares the initial announcement with a link to the first blog
post. [XScreenSaver](https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Xscreensaver) is
free software and has its own entry in the [Free Software 
Directory](https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Main_Page). 
In celebration of its anniversary, please consider exercising some of 
your freedoms -- anything from using it as you like to developing your 
own screensaver creations to be used for the next thirty years.

### A new jailbreak for John Deere tractors rides the Right to Repair wave

*From August 13 by Lily Hay Newman*

If the software in tractors were free, the farmers would be able
to take ownership over their machines again, and they would truly
have the right to repair. This write-up explains how farmers around 
the world have turned to tractor hacking so they can bypass the digital 
locks that manufacturers impose on their vehicles. Like insulin pump
"looping" and iPhone jailbreaking, this allows farmers to modify
and repair the expensive equipment that’s vital to their work,
the way they could with analog tractors. The article shows that for the 
farmers to have access to true right to repair, it starts with free software.

### DreamWorks Animation to release MoonRay as free software

*From August 5 by Dan Sarto*

DreamWorks intends to make MoonRay available under the Apache 2.0
license. Further information and updates will be available at
<https://openmoonray.org/>. While the move to the free software license is 
still
yet to happen, this initial announcement is promising.

### Textbook publisher: NFTs will let us squeeze even more money out of 
students

*From August 3 by Adi Robertson*

Pearson's CEO, and former chairman of Walt Disney
International, Andy Bird, recently explained his plan to sell digital 
textbooks
as NFTs in a scheme that allows the publisher to profit from secondary
sales, as well as track the ownership of a book even when it changes
hands. Although the details have yet to be divulged, Pearson has made
its intent clear that they would like to skirt legal grounding such as
the first-sale doctrine, which permits physical book buyers to own
their books outright and sell it without sending any money back to the
original publishers (nor notifying them of the sale). Notably, Pearson
already employs Digital Restrictions Management (DRM) of various kinds,
using their unjust power to squeeze money out of teachers and
learners, which made them the target of the FSF's [International Day against 
DRM (IDAD)
in 
2019](https://www.defectivebydesign.org/blog/idad_2019_thank_you_defending_right_read).

### Join the FSF and friends in updating the Free Software Directory

Tens of thousands of people visit directory.fsf.org each month to
discover free software. Each entry in the Directory contains a wealth
of useful information, from basic category and descriptions to version
control, IRC channels, documentation, and licensing. The Free Software
Directory has been a great resource to software users over the past
decade, but it needs your help staying up-to-date with new and
exciting free software projects.

To help, join our weekly IRC meetings on Fridays. Meetings take place
in the #fsf channel on Libera.Chat, and usually include a handful of
regulars as well as newcomers. Libera.Chat is accessible from any IRC
client -- Everyone's welcome!

The next meeting is Friday, September 2 from 12pm to 3pm EDT (17:00 to
19:00 UTC). Details here:

  * <https://www.fsf.org/events/fsd-20220902-irc>

### LibrePlanet featured resource: DRM-free textbooks

Every month on [the LibrePlanet
wiki](https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Main_Page), we highlight one
resource that is interesting and useful -- often one that could use
your help.

For this month, we are highlighting DRM-free textbooks, which provides
information about textbooks and other educational books that do not
implement DRM. You are invited to adopt, spread and improve this
important resource.

  * <https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:DRM-free_Textbooks>

Do you have a suggestion for next month's featured resource? Let us
know at <campaigns AT fsf.org>.

To download: nearly all GNU software is available most reliably from
<https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/>. Optionally, you may find faster download
speeds at a mirror located geographically closer to you by choosing
from the list of mirrors published at
<https://www.gnu.org/prep/ftp.html>, or using
<https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/> to be automatically redirected to a
(hopefully) nearby and up-to-date mirror.

A number of GNU packages, as well as the GNU operating system as a
whole, are looking for maintainers and other assistance: please see
<https://www.gnu.org/server/takeaction.html#unmaint> if you'd like to
help. The general page on how to help GNU is at
<https://www.gnu.org/help/help.html>.

If you have a working or partly working program that you'd like to
offer to the GNU project as a GNU package, see
<https://www.gnu.org/help/evaluation.html>.

As always, please feel free to write to me, <bandali AT gnu.org>, with
any GNUish questions or suggestions for future installments.
