<h1>About Software Freedom Conservancy, Inc.</h1>
<p>Software Freedom Conservancy, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit
organization incorporated in New York. Conservancy is managed by
its <a href="/about/board/">board of directors</a>, who appoint
its <a href="/about/officers/">officers</a> and hire
its <a href="/about/staff/">staff</a>. Conservancy also gets some
occasional help from <a href="/about/outside/">outside legal counsel and
contractors</a>.</p>
organization incorporated in New York. Software Freedom Conservancy helps
promote, improve, develop, and defend Free, Libre, and Open Source Software
(FLOSS) projects. Conservancy provides a non-profit home and infrastructure
for FLOSS projects. This allows FLOSS developers to focus on what they do
best &mdash; writing and improving FLOSS for the general public &mdash; while
Conservancy takes care of the projects' needs that do not relate directly to
software development and documentation.</p>
<p>FLOSS projects whose <a href="/members/apply">applications are
accepted</a> become part of the Software Freedom Conservancy
(akin to a separate department of a large agency). Once joined, the
<a href="/members">&ldquo;member project&rdquo;</a> receives most of
the benefits of existing as a non-profit corporate entity without
engaging in the arduous work of forming a separate, new organization.
Conservancy aggregates the work of running a FLOSS non-profit
for <a href="/members/current/">its many members</a>.</p>
<p>Conservancy provides <a href="/members/services/">many important services</a> for its
member projects. Member projects can take directed donations, which
allows donors to earmark their donations for the benefit of a specific
FLOSS project. Conservancy provides fiscal oversight to ensure that
these funds are spent in a manner that advances the project and fits
with Conservancy's 501(c)(3) mission to promote, advance, and defend software freedom.</p>
<p>If the member project's leaders want, Conservancy can also hold other
assets and titles on behalf of the projects, such as copyrights,
trademarks, domain names, online hosting accounts, and title and ownership
of physical hardware. Also at discretion of the project's leaders,
Conservancy can assist in defending the rights represented in these
assets. For example, Conservancy is available to assist member projects
in enforcing the terms of the projects' FLOSS license.</p>
