FTF: Freedom Task Force
The Freedom Task Force is a project to help people understand Free Software licensing and the opportunities it presents. We offer educational services, facilitate larger infrastructure activities and manage FSFE's legal affairs. Our work is to promote the proper use of Free Software.
Our Goals:
- To share knowledge about Free Software law;
- To safeguard the interests of Free Software projects;
- To connect experts in this field;
- To help other groups achieve similar goals.
Our Methods:
We believe in positive, constructive dialogue and seek at all times to support the long-term sustainability of Free Software.
Our People:
The Freedom Task Force has a full-time coordinator, staff and an office based in Zurich, Switzerland. We work in partnership with the gpl-violations.org project to resolve licensing issues, and we cooperate with law firms in many European countries. The FTF recommends legal experts by request.
Latest news:
We have just released a guide to reporting and fixing licence violations in partnership with gpl-violations.org. It explains how to make a report, what information is useful to include, and offers suggestions for how projects or businesses can deal with reports once they are received.
