[ Version en ligne: https://fsfe.org/news/nl/nl-202012.fr.html ]

In our December Newsletter, read about the German Corona Warn App being
published independently to extend software freedom, learn about public
code in international development cooperation, enjoy an interview with
Cord-Landwehr from KDE about REUSE adoption, one about the Zurich local
group receiving a DINACon award and much more.

=3D=3D German Corona tracing app available without Google services =3D=3D

Christian Grigis, Fynn Godau, Marcus Hoffmann and Marvin Wi=C3=9Ffeld
achieved what official bodies have been missing for months: They have
made available the German "Corona Warn App" (CWA) for tracing Covid-19
risk contacts in a version that is completely free of dependencies on
Google and is available in F-Droid, the Free Software app store.

Initial release of the CWA was in June and the FSFE's demand that any
Corona tracking app must be used voluntarily and be Free Software [1]
has been followed. However, the implemented exchange of device keys via
Bluetooth, on the basis of which the risk is calculated, is handled by
an underlying interface called Exposure Notifications API, which was,
significantly, developed by Apple and Google and was largely
proprietary. One also had to use proprietary Google Play Services or the
iTunes store to install it.

So while on the one hand we were satisfied that the publicly funded CWA
has been released as Free Software, we raised the question what is all
this freedom worth if the solution depends on third-party proprietary
blobs? [2] And if one has to use proprietary software to install them?

=3D=3D=3D Indepently published in F-Droid =3D=3D=3D

A first major improvement towards fixing this issue was provided by Free
Software developer and FSFE supporter Marvin Wi=C3=9Ffeld [3] in September.
He built the exposure notification functionality into microG [4], a Free
Software implementation of the proprietary Google services. This allowed
at least people who owned a Google-free Android phone [5] and had microG
installed to use various Corona apps.

A few days ago, Christian Grigis, Fynn Godau, Marcus Hoffmann and Marvin
Wi=C3=9Ffeld went one step farther. They integrated the exposure notificati=
on
component of microG directly into the German Corona Warn App [6]. This
so-called Drop-In-Replacement enables even people who have neither the
Google services nor their Free Software alternative microG installed, to
use the CWA. They also made the app available on F-Droid [7], an app
store with exclusively Free Software.

We would like to thank all persons involved who made the use of the CWA
in Germany possible without having to accept any loss of software
freedom. Furthermore, the FSFE appeals to governments and
administrations to publish developed software as Free Software, to break
dependencies on Google's and Apple's app stores and instead make their
apps installable from independent sources like F-Droid and to renounce
proprietary dependencies.
