For those like me who don't already know who these people are. As you can read |
| 10 |
here [http://www.softwarefreedom.org/services/] under Non-profit Corporate |
| 11 |
Assistance, they appear to be a spin-off of the Software Freedom Law Center |
| 12 |
(SFLC) which was was launched in February 2005 with Eben Moglen, of GPLv3 |
| 13 |
fame, as Chairman: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
"The SFLC helps FOSS projects develop and maintain legal status to help ensure |
| 16 |
their longevity. The SFLC assists its clients with all stages of corporate |
| 17 |
existence, including formation and tax exemption, and helps projects with |
| 18 |
their contracts and governance. The SFLC established and continues to serve as |
| 19 |
counsel to the Software Freedom Conservancy, which provides an alternative to |
| 20 |
independent corporate formation for FOSS projects. The SFLC is also able to |
| 21 |
represent its clients in negotiations." |
