Hi folks,

If anyone on this list is a supporter of Linux, copyleft, the GPL, Free
Software or even Open Source, you may want to support the Software
Freedom Conservancy, who are doing a fund-raising drive at the moment.
The are one of the few organisations working on GPL compliance and they
lost funding from the Linux Foundation because of that work.
If anyone knows other GPL folks or is on other Linux lists in
Australia, please feel free to forward this message to them.

Here are some links for background on the situation:
