History

NC 751 is a route formed early during the creation of the North Carolina route system. The original system established primary routes with two digit numbers and spurs with an extra digit at the end. NC 751 then was the first spur off of NC 75 which ran along the basic route of today's US 15 and was supplanted by it, and then also by US 501 in the late 1920s. NC 751's first routing took it from NC 75 (Old Chapel Hill Road in Durham) to NC 10, which is now US 70. In the 1950s with US 15-501 put onto a new route to the north, NC 751 was extended along Chapel Hill Street (now University Drive) and south along Hope Valley Road to NC 54. Later it was extended further south to US 64.

(A3)> Does not permit nonfree licenses (or lack of license) for works for practical use. (A4)See above. Although not ALLOWING licenses like that would be very not free.> Does not recommend services that are SaaSS. (A5)Yes.> Says “free software,” not “open source.” (A6)Don't know if it says either.> Clearly endorses the Free Software Movement's ideas of freedom. (A7)No.> Avoids saying “Linux” without “GNU” when referring to GNU/Linux. (A8)It says neither.> Insists that each nontrivial file in a package clearly and unambiguously state how it is licensed. (A9)No, and this is stupid.
gollark: > All code sent to the user's browser must be free software and labeled for LibreJS or other suitable free automatic license analyzer, regardless of whether the site functions when the user disables this code. (B0)Nope!> Does not report visitors to other organizations; in particular, no tracking tags in the pages. This means the site must avoid most advertising networks. (B1)Yes, it is entirely served locally.> Does not encourage bad licensing practices (no license, unclear licensing, GPL N only).

gollark: > All important site functionality that's enabled for use with that package works correctly (though it need not look as nice) in free browsers, including IceCat, without running any nonfree software sent by the site. (C0)I think so. Definitely works in free browsers, don't know if it contains nonfree software.> No other nonfree software is required to use the site (thus, no Flash). (C1)Yes.> Does not discriminate against classes of users, or against any country. (C2)Yes.> Permits access via Tor (we consider this an important site function). (C3)Yes.> The site's terms of service contain no odious conditions. (C4)Yes.> Recommends and encourages GPL 3-or-later licensing at least as much as any other kind of licensing. (C5)I don't think it has much on licensing, so suuuure.> Support HTTPS properly and securely, including the site's certificates. (C6)Definitely.
