Free software leaflet
I have designed a leaflet that I am going to distribute around my local community to spread awareness of free software.
would anyone be able to give feedback on how informative they are?
thanks in advance
the attached leaflet is designed to go on A5 paper.

Interesting...
Thank you very much for this contribution! :D
Don't forget to make the FSF and LibrePlanet Artists aware of this
resource, they might link to where you put the material, or even provide
some repository for further development (I guess one could use
Savannah.GNU.org to host such collaborative works of multi-project
importance, but I'm not sure).
I have one suggestion to make: To the brief explanation of the four
freedoms, I would write it this way:
# Begin of citation
More specifically users have the freedom to run, study, adapt, share and
sell the software they are using or adapting.
# End of citation
I'm not an expert in linguistics, but this phrase, for me, expresses a
virtuous event cycle/circle.
Where one can:
* Run the original copies or the adaptations. Remember: open source
proponents don't fight against digital handcuffs whose main purpose is
to limit freedoms 0 and 1, but we free/libre software activists do fight
against these problems.
* Study and adapt the original copies and adaptations. See the previous
reminder.
* Share and sell the original copies.
* Share and sell the adaptations.
Respectfully, Adonay.

thanks for your feedback i have emailed the FSF and attached the leaflet and I have changed the leaflet to you recommendations.
Great idea! Personally, I think your leaflet can improve, it also needs images. It can be used in free software events or similar. I will develop a leaflet to spread free software in my school (but I will make copies, of course) and license it under the creative commons share-alike license
Turn it into an infographic.
I have updated the leaflet with some new images

This looks like an official publication of the FSF. Please don't use trademarked logos without permission.
I think I should point out that you should definitely not plaster the FSF logo on the top of this. That sort of implies that the FSF is responsible for it, and they aren't.
Yes I have already emailed the FSF about the use of the logo and I am waiting to hear back
I will not distribute any of the leaflets until I hear back
I have not heard back from the FSF yet so I made another leaflet.

I would put somewhere the names of the free software foundation initiatives (Defective by design, h-node, etc) and non-gnu ones (Replicant, Linux-Libre, etc).
