https://fossreviews.wordpress.com/ FOS reviews about FOSS

Add reviews to the Wiki, feel free to edit reviews and make them better but all reviews must be positive towards FOSS (obviously if a FOSS program is bad you can say so). I (Adam) have an RSS feed monitoring the changes in the Wiki and I will pull (update) from here whenever an appropriate edit is made. YOU REALLY SHOULDN'T MAKE IT THIS EASY TO EDIT.

Version numbering: If you update a review to review a new version of the program, update the version number, if you have an older version of the program, then don't edit the review. Betas, Alphas and Dev versions are separate to the Stable versions. Therefore, there could be Firefox, Firefox Beta, Firefox Aurora and Firefox Nightly reviews if we are going to maximize detail. You can just link the Firefox Beta article to the Firefox article and say that there are some differences and then redo the scores (as they may be slightly different). Likewise, I am counting Ubuntu LTS, Ubuntu and Ubuntu Development Branch as separate operating systems because their stability and features differ so much. When the dev branch merges with the main branch, simply remove the dev review. When the most recent version of Ubuntu is LTS, remove the LTS review.

The 'Total' score is the mean of the others, round as appropriate.
