What sort of thing is Weboob?  Is it a program you can run?  A "web
application" for talking to a server?  Software to run a server?

What job does Weboob do?  The name suggests a site where people
publish seminude selfies, but I doubt that's really what it does.

If it includes software, what is its license?  Is it free software?

I fetched the front page of weboob.org, and it didn't say anything
about those questions, nor show where I could find that information.
I think it listed a place to get the source code, but finding those
answers from the source code would be laborious and slow for me.
