Free software is not "non minified" software. It is software available under a specific licence. > Any "minified" js code can be free software if available under such a licence. Actually, _both_ of these criteria are necessary. To be free, a Javascript program must be (1) covered by some free software license (see https://gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and https://gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html) and (2) available in souce code form. Source code means the preferred form of the code for editing it. Obfuscated code (including minified Javascript code) is not source code. It is a kind of compiled code. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation (gnu.org, fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (internethalloffame.org) Skype: No way! See stallman.org/skype.html.
