Fellowship Supporters

Media partners

LWN.net

LWN.net has been a reliable and steady source of information from the Free Software world since 1998. Its aim is to provide complete information from the development community in a concise, well-written, and objective manner. For more information on LWN, see the LWN.net FAQ.

LWN.net considers the Fellowship of FSFE a very important project to bring together people interested in the issues that connect this community, and to show this support in a more substantial way, offers a three month gratis subscription to all Fellows.

GNUvox is a project promoted and coordinated by FSFE. Its goal is to provide a clear voice that carries the message and meaning of Free Software outside the current boundaries of the Free Software community. Currently, it is a blog in Italian.
