-% Community feedback on whether to offer libreboot.org domain name to SFC
-% Leah Rowe
-% 27 Apr 2017
-
-I, Leah Rowe, have stepped down as leader of the Libreboot project. This means
-that I must also transfer ownership of the libreboot.org domain name to
-another entity. I have chosen to propose the Software Freedom Conservancy (SFC)
-as that entity.
-
-Commenting will be taken on
-<https://www.reddit.com/r/libreboot/comments/67x3bs/proposal_transfer_librebootorg_domain_name/>
-as to whether this decision should be taken. Full reasoning is documented
-there.
-
-Software Freedom Conservancy is heavily affiliated with the FSF. Conservancy
-provides legal services, e.g. GPL enforcement, for those who violate the GNU
-General Public License. They generally offer legal services related to Free
-Software. Its founder, Bradley Kuhn, is also a former Executive Director of
-the FSF. (Karen Sandler, is SFC's current Executive Director).
-
-In addition to legal services, Conservancy also helps promote Free Software
-and provides certain infrastructure for Free Software projects, and does
-sometimes assist in development of projects.
-

-
-This is something that could be offered to GNU as part of Libreboot's
-filed application to re-join GNU.
-
-Previously, it was proposed that the domain name be transferred to the FSF, but
-this was vetoed by an opposing member of the core leadership, when I proposed
-it. SFC was then recommended as an alternative, hence this new proposal.
