= Known Free Software Android Applications =

We would like to list here all known Free Software applications that can be installed on an Android phone, particularly the HTC Dream.

Le Wiki Koumbit has a list of [https://wiki.koumbit.net/AndroidFreeSoftware free/libre apps for Android].

''I used this page as a basis for a similar wikipedia [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Open_Source_Android_Applications page], but it is flagging it as copyrighted content. I don't see a copyright notice on the wiki, but as this is an OSS top-to-bottom project, I think it would be a good idea to release the wiki under an open source license.''
