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. - -More information: -<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_Freedom_Conservancy> - -Conservancy website: -<https://sfconservancy.org/> - -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. |
