<http://www.softwarefreedom.org/news/2009/dec/14/busybox-gpl-lawsuit/> The SFLC is a non-profit law firm established in 2005 to provide pro-bono legal services to Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) developers. The suit was filed on behalf of the Software Freedom Conservancy (Conservancy), the non-profit corporate home of the popular software application BusyBox and many other FOSS projects, and Erik Andersen, one of the program's principal developers and copyright holders. <http://conservancy.softwarefreedom.org/overview/> The Software Freedom Conservancy is an organization composed of Free, Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects (called Conservancy's “member projects”). Conservancy is a fiscal sponsor for these member projects, thus the Conservancy's member projects benefit from financial, administrative services and non-profit oversight. By joining the Conservancy, member projects can obtain the benefits of a formal legal structure while keeping themselves focused on software development. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
