Free Software Foundation Europa

Bienvenidos a la página principal de la Free Software Foundation Europe (Fundación para el Software Libre Europa). La FSFE se constituyó el 10 de marzo de 2001 y da soporte a todos los aspectos del Software Libre, especialmente al Proyecto GNU. Apoyamos activamente el desarrollo de Software Libre y sistemas operativos basados en GNU tales como GNU/Linux. Además, proporcionamos un centro de ayuda para políticos, abogados y periodistas, para garantizar el futuro legal, político y social del Software Libre.

El trabajo de la FSFE es posible gracias a muchas contribuciones individuales, en particular las de la Fellowship de la FSFE. Uno de los métodos para contribuir es unirse ahora y animar a otros a hacer lo mismo.

[...] Document Freedom is about giving you control of your information, it is about giving governments control of their public records, and it is about freedom of choice. You can give yourself that freedom today [...] [Leer más...] FSFE Newsletter 2008-03-17 It has been an exceptional month. The European Commission has fined Microsoft an additional 899 million Euro for continuing to restrict access to interoperability information prior to October 2007 and the ISO Ballot Resolution Meeting in Geneva failed to address most of the serious issues and ultimately ended up waving through the bulk of ECMA responses without review. Public awareness of issues relating to software freedom have been raised dramatically.

OpenForum Europe, The European Software Market Association, and the Free Software Foundation Europe today launched a petition to call on the EP to use Open Standards so that all citizens can participate in the democratic process.
