<h2 class="">2023 in Review</h2>

<details id="YearInReview">
  <summary>Overview</summary>

<p>This has been a big year for Software Freedom Conservancy in our tireless
efforts to promote ethical technology, increase diversity and inclusion in
FOSS, continuing to fight for your rights with <a
href="https://sfconservancy.org/copyleft-compliance/">copyleft compliance</a>,
and support our incredible <a href="https://sfconservancy.org/members/current/">member projects</a>.
Our staff engaged in many invited speaking opportunities, we grew our staff,
and we continue to build community around important issues like the software
Right to Repair movement. We hosted our first large conference, <a href="https://fossy.us">FOSSY</a>,
and while we finalize details for next year, we hope to see you there to join
us in community!</p>

<p>SFC lawyers after recent Vizio case- CC BY-SA 4.0</p></div>

<p>Our <a href="https://vizio.sfconservancy.org">lawsuit against Vizio</a>— the first
lawsuit of its kind to seek <b>third party beneficiary rights to the
complete, corresponding source code under the GPL</b> is progressing!
World-changing, public policy litigation requires resources and time, but
it's worth every penny so we can build a future where <b>every consumer</b> has
access to the source code they need to modify and repair their devices.  At a
<a href="https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2023/oct/12/how-i-watched-motion-summary-judgment-hearing/">recent hearing in the case</a>,
we presented
<a href="https://sfconservancy.org/news/2023/oct/12/transcript-msj-hearing/">our opposition to Vizio's Summary Judgement Motion</a>,
our lawyers
<a href="https://sfconservancy.org/docs/Transcript_Full_Vizios_MSJ_HearingDeptC-33.231005.pdf">presented the eloquent case</a>
that recipients of software under the GPL Agreements <b>can</b> enforce their
rights to the corresponding source code themselves, and that right should not
be preempted by copyright law. We are the only organization currently taking
legal action to protect the GPL Agreements in the USA; your support is
critical for us to continue these kinds of efforts.</p>

<p>We have also <a href="https://sfconservancy.org/news/2020/jul/30/refile2020/">once again</a>
filed key DMCA exemptions for the following categories:</p>

<ul>
  <li>Computer programs for purposes of good-faith security research</li>
  <li>"jailbreaking" smart TVs</li>
  <li>"jailbreaking" routers</li>
  <li>Literary works consisting of compilations of data generated by medical devices or their personal corresponding monitoring systems, to access personal data</li>
</ul>

<p>These allow people access (that should be granted in the first place!) to
investigate their own devices for issues of license compliance, security,
and replacing the firmware on their TVs and routers. It's a key ability to
vet and replace software on devices we own and operate, so renewing this
exemption each time it comes up is very important for us all. The medical
device exemption was submitted by our Executive Director Karen Sandler in
partnership with others who are personally affected by proprietary medical
technology.</p>

<p>As software based technology becomes more pervasive in our lives, it's vital
that we communicate the importance of software freedom to the wider population.
In that vein <a href="https://sfconservancy.org/news/2022/may/12/introduction/">we've created a video</a>
(narrated by our Executive Director Karen Sandler) that introduces
the ideas of software freedom, and specifically what Software Freedom
Conservancy does. We also did a lot of public writings about some of the
important issues this year. From <a href="https://sfconservancy.org/news/2023/feb/09/kuhn-neo4j-purethink-expert-report/">our perspective on the Neo4j suit</a>
to <a href="https://sfconservancy.org/news/2023/aug/15/exit-zoom/">highlighting problematic behavior from proprietary software companies</a> and calling for folks to Exit Zoom. We'd also like to
remind you that as a Sustainer, we will provide you with your own <a href="https://bbb.sfconservancy.org">BigBlueButton</a> account so that you can host your own video calls on a FOSS platform. Once
you have donated to us, you can fill our the new account signup and your
account will be approved.</p>

<details id="NewStaff">
<summary>New Staff!</summary>
<p>SFC hired two additional employees this year! General Counsel Rick Sanders
joins the team to help with our continued legal needs. Rick has over 20 years
experience as a intellectual-property litigator. His expertise has been
critical in helping our license compliance efforts and helping our organization
take on the increasing needs from projects and new initiatives. SFC's new
systems administrator is Paul Visscher. With over 20 years experience with
Linux and free software, Paul's belief in the power of free software to help
people engage with technology in non-exploitative ways fits in perfectly to
support our growing organizational needs and mission. Helping make sure we
can provide solid FOSS replacements to proprietary technologies for all of us.</p>

<details id="WritingAndSpeaking">
  <summary>Writing and Speaking</summary>
<p>Our staff has been presenting and speaking about software freedom all year.
Our Executive Director Karen Sandler received an honorary doctorate from
Katholieke Universiteit Leuven for her incredible work in FOSS leadership, and
her advocacy and pursuit of software freedom and rights for all.
  In November she spoke at <a href="https://www.sfscon.it/talks/the-history-of-and-path-forward-for-copyleft-and-the-gpl/">SFSCON about "The History of, and Path forward for, Copyleft and the GPL"</a>.</p>

<p>Policy Fellow Bradley M. Kuhn gave many conference talks and also represented SFC at many
government hearings and inquiries. Beginning the year at <a href="https://archive.fosdem.org/2023/schedule/speaker/bradley_m_kuhn/">FOSDEM</a>,
Bradley (and Karen) led the Legal and Policy DevRoom. He then spoke at SCaLE
20x giving a talk titled <a href="https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/20x/presentations/learning-big-failures-improve-foss-advocacy-and-adoption">Learning From the Big Failures To Improve FOSS Advocacy and Adoption</a>.
As the host of a keynote discussion at FOSSY, Bradley facilitated a
<a href="https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2023/jul/19/rhel-panel-fossy-2023/">
community discussion about the RHEL policy change</a>.
As a panel member, he was the only representative for the FOSS community on
the FTC's discussion <a href="https://sfconservancy.org/news/2023/oct/04/ftc-ai-panel/">“Creative Economy and Generative AI“</a></p>

<p>Our Director of Compliance, Denver Gingerich, spoke at SFSCON talking about what it's really like to <a href="https://www.sfscon.it/talks/how-do-you-really-do-gpl-enforcement/">enforce the GPL</a>. His talk at FOSSY titled <a href="https://2023.fossy.us/schedule/presentation/84/">You don't carry a phone?! Improving societal acceptance of abnormal people</a>
was one of the most talked about from our own conference.
Pono represented SFC at <a href="https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/19x">SCaLE
19x</a> and <a href="https://seagl.org">SeaGL</a>, which was great to be back
at community centered conferences.
SFC staffers also participate in key meetings to represent community interests
in a variety of FOSS related discussions concerning security, governmental use
of FOSS and in critical infrastructure discussions and also presented in
classroom to educate students about software freedom.</p>

<details id="Highlights">
  <summary>Highlights From Our Member Projects</summary>
  <p>We've raised, administered and/or facilitated $1.8 million to improve
software freedom directly! This includes contractors, interns and students,
administrators, and grants for creation, distribution and maintenance of free
software projects.  Part of the unique position of our organization is the
expertise necessary to do this kind of work.</p>

</div>

<p><b>Outreachy</b> accepted 63 interns in the December 2022 cohort, and 64
interns in the May 2023 cohort with over 30 Free and Open Source software
communities.  Bringing in new communities in the Open Science and Humanitarian
spheres, Outreachy continues to lead the way in providing opportunities to
people subject to systemic bias and impacted by underrepresentation in
technology. Celebrating our 1000th intern (!!!), there were celebrations
featuring alumni and current interns all over the world. </p>

<p><b>OpenWrt</b> released <a href="https://openwrt.org/releases/23.05/notes-23.05.0">version 23.05.0</a>
which continued adding hardware support for myriad devices, now supporting over
1790 devices, over 200 of which were added since last year! There is also now
support for various Rust packages, and major improvements to the core
components. OpenWrt remains one of the most important alternative firmware
projects, ensuring user rights in the ability to install (free) software on
your own devices.</p>


<p><a href="https://computinginresearch.org/">The Institute for Computing in
Research</a> completed it's fifth year, supporting 32 students in 3 cities this
summer. Now providing training, education and real world software experience to
high school students in 3 cities and exploring additional cities that may join
next summer. These research internships are a great way for high school
students to get involved in real academic research while also being exposed to
the ideas and principles of software freedom.</p>

<p><a href="https://inkscape.org">Inkscape</a> just celebrated their 20th
anniversary! Coinciding with their new <a href="https://inkscape.org/news/2023/11/18/big-small-release-inkscape-131-is-out/">1.3.1 release</a>, Inkscape is as active as ever and proving itself one
of the most vital free software projects, full of longevity and an ever
growing community. This year has been a big year of development, marking some
very exciting developments for the project. Creation of a new <a href="https://inkscape.org/*membership/blog/october-bug-accelerator-2023/">bug accelerator program</a>, a migration to <a href="https://inkscape.org/*membership/blog/august-gtk4-migration-tavmjong/">GTK4</a>, another year of <a href="https://inkscape.org/*membership/blog/customizable-canvas-controls/">GSOC participation</a> and new support for <a href="https://inkscape.org/*membership/blog/may-ai-extension-2023/">Adobe Illustrator import</a>!</p>

<p>Our member projects had a range of in person and online events this year.
<b>Inkscape</b> hosted an in-person meeting in Bensberg, Germany. A great meeting
for the PLC and contributors to get together to plan and work on technical
challenges. The first back in-person <b>Selenium</b> <a
href="https://seleniumconf.com/">conference</a> was in Chicago this past
may. Attendance from over 10 countries, it was an incredible reunion for
the project contributors and users to get together. The <b>Git</b>
contributor summit was held online this year in September. Topics ranged from
ideas of new library support to how to better support for scaling with large
code forges and what the new contributor experience is like. A great mix of
code related and process related talks. The <a href="https://reproducible-builds.org/">Reproducible Builds</a>
annual summit was hosted in Hamburg featuring incredible
technical talks, project planning and continues to build the momentum and
reach for reproducibility. </p>
