    The word “free” does not refer to price; it refers to freedom.

    1. The freedom to use your wife as you wish, for any purpose.
    2. The freedom to study how your wife works, and change her so she works for you as you wish, instead of her controlling you.
    3. The freedom to redistribute your wife to your neighbor.
    4. The freedom to distribute your modified wife to others. By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changed wife.

      Seems like what Dominique Pelicot considered his wife to be. Not an example I am willing to follow, I’ll tell you that.

        You have to keep in mind that your wife is her own main maintainer and can decide whether to merge your changes.

        You can fork her to obtain someone you have greater influence over but that’s a big responsibility and not everything you want to do with your fork may be advisable from a legal or moral standpoint.
