FOSDEM: Celebrating 25 years of community and Free Software

News

Some ocassions are too special to miss, like the FSFE February trip to FOSDEM, where we connected with the Free Software community. Even when things don’t go as planned, it was an energizing boost against the winter blues. Thanks to everyone who joined our DevRooms, attended our talks including our keynote on the Apple litigation, came to our women's breakfast, and stopped at the booth. Your support means a lot!

Legal Corner: MIA or Dead Contributors - Does It Matter For Your Software Project?

Community

If your software project operates on multiple contributions, and a contributor becomes uncontactable or passes away, this can become an issue in certain situations. Here we’ll discuss when a missing or deceased contributor affects your software project, and what options you have.  

Notre communauté Devenir actif...

The FSFE does great work to further software freedom locally, nationally and in the EU and I enjoy the podcast and the News RSS so it felt natural to become a supporter. I also want to be more involved with the free software community.

Einar Mostad (English teacher, musician, IT student)

If software is licensed as free software, we can audit it, and be sure that it does what it's intended to do (and nothing else). Public institutions develop software, and hire companies to make it, and the citizens should own and reuse all that code. I contribute to Free Software with translations, user help desk, finding free software alternatives at the University... but I cannot reach the policy-makers, nor people and institutions in other countries.

Laura Arjona Reina (IT Assistant at Technical University of Madrid and Debian contributor)

The most fun part about engaging for FSFE is meeting real people and exchanging substantial information about relevant issues. These can be anything from rooting your cell phone, to learning Git, to understanding Free Software based business, to speaking up for the use of open standards in public organisations.
