Freedom Issue #118
[newsbeuter] Google Reader support
0%
Description
I think newsbeuter software does not meet the theme of freedom, as it uses some commands to make use of "Google Reader"
It would be good idea to check.
Makes use of commands like: googlereader-*
Here the manual newsbeuter: [[http://ompldr.org/vZTByag]]

It recommends starting to use Google Reader with its nonfree JavaScript? Unsure if there is another reason to remove it or this feature (we keep many packages cooperating with nonfree servers keeping or publishing user's data).

Google Corp. is planning to shut the service down beginning with July 1st of 2013. Also I can see no problem in linkage to their aggregating service as far as this is all part of a client / project under FSF approved license. The Parabola Project is not promoting use of non-free web-services by any means.
PS: Should be marked as FIXED or WON'T FIX. (=
