Conservancy and FSF Publish Principles of Copyleft Enforcement
October 1, 2015
Software Freedom Conservancy announces today the publication of The Principles of Community-Oriented GPL Enforcement. This document, co-authored with the Free Software Foundation (FSF), outlines basic guidelines for any organization that seeks to uphold copyleft licenses on behalf of the public good. In their regular work, Conservancy and FSF each actively pursue compliance actions for copylefted software. Members of the public entrust the FSF and Conservancy to uphold the rights embodied in the GPL family of licenses. The FSF holds copyrights in many essential GNU packages, and Conservancy not only holds its own copyrights in BusyBox, the Linux kernel, and Debian, but also has built coalitions of BusyBox, Debian, Linux, and Samba developers who have delegated their license enforcement authority to Conservancy. Both organizations conduct GPL enforcement as transparently as possible, and provide helpful and abundant educational material (such as their joint copyleft.org project) for individuals and companies who use and distribute Open Source and Free Software.
