## Presentation of @:txt.soft FComing from the educational world and now turned towards popular education, @:html.soft is above all a network of projects, of which the first, [directory @:linkcolor.libre](@:link.libre), dates back to 2001. These projects are run by people working together with the same desire: promote digital freedoms. Respect for the fundamental freedoms of users, guaranteed by legal contracts (the [free licenses](@:link.wFreeLicense)), is at the heart of the libristfree software movement and ensures that the humans remains in control of their digital tools. The@:html.soft’s goal is to offer, mainly online, a set of concrete and practical tools to facilitate adoption: - of free software (directory, USB sticks, installer…); - of free cultural creations (blog, translation, publishing house…); - of free services (more than 30 free services in the project @:html.dio). Presented as a “gateway to the Free World”, the network@:html.soft network wants to position itself as a bridge between the librarianfree software community and the general public.
