The Free Software Foundation Tuesday announced a major rethinking of the software projects that it supports, putting top priority on a free mobile operating system, accessibility, and driver development, among other areas. The foundation has maintained the High Priority Projects list since 2005, when it contained just four free software projects. [That rose to 12 projects by 2008, though the changelog shows at least seven projects have since been removed.] Today’s version mostly identifies priority areas, along with a few specific projects in key areas.
The new list shows the FSF will continue financially supporting Replicant, their free version of Android, and they’re also still supporting projects to create a free software replacement for Skype with real-time voice and video capabilities. But they’re now also prioritizing various projects to replace Siri, Google Now, Alexa, and Cortana with a free-software personal assistant, which they view as “crucial to preserving users’ control over their technology and data while still giving them the benefits such software has for many.”

And other priorities now include internationalization, accessibility, decentralization and self-hosting, and encouraging governments to adopt free software.
