Extra page for the good RMS and the FSF have done?

[ossimalvin]

Since the other repo has an extra page detailing why they believe RMS is evil incarnate, I think there should be an extra page on this repo detailing what the FSF has done for open source and maybe some links to donation pages and other ways to support the project.

Yeah this guy literally changed the whole goddamn world with GNU, GNU/Linux and FSF.

RMS has arguably done more to make the world a better place than any other computer programmer, living or dead.

We can put the extras to the repo's wiki, so that it can be easily edited.

I think a Redditor has done a big job

See https://stallmansupport.org/ and specifically https://stallmansupport.org/richard-stallman-honors-and-awards.html

[shenlebantongying]

https://stallmansupport.org/ has been endorsed by RMS himself and that page link to us.

Maybe we can add a link to README?
