Free Software Foundation Europa
Libre de Libertad
La Fundación para el Software Libre en Europa (FSFE) es una organización
sin ánimo de lucro y, en algunos países, una organización benéfica
dedicada al Software Libre. La
FSFE sostiene que las libertades de usar, estudiar, compartir y mejorar
el software son fundamentales para garantizar la igualdad de
participación en la era de la información. Trabajamos para crear
comprensión general y apoyo a la libertad del software en la política, el
derecho y la sociedad en general. También promovemos el desarrollo de
tecnologías como el sistema operativo GNU/Linux, que proporciona estas
libertades a todos los participantes en la sociedad digital.
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.
FSFE's Fellows have elected their second
representative to the organisation's governing body, the
General Assembly. Julia Klein will join Torsten Grote in FSFE's
strategic decision making body to speak for the Fellows for the next
two years.
Will you be able to read your documents 20 years from now? Every day,
millions of computer users like you edit text and spreadsheets, take
pictures and record audio and video. What if you couldn't read your
private letters anymore, or even open that album with pictures from your
honeymoon? What if you couldn't exchange those files with friends, because
the software used by each one of you can't talk to each other? To help you
make your documents future-proof, we celebrate Document Freedom Day on
March 31.
FSFE welcomes the arrival of greater competition in the web browser
market. From today, Microsoft has to offer Windows users in Europe the
possibility to choose among different browsers. This step puts into
practice the company's settlement with the European Commission from
December 2009. The Free Software Foundation Europe was an active
participant in the Commission's investigation.
This year on Valentine's Day, FSFE calls on Free Software users
everywhere to show their love for Free Software. Behind every Free
Software initiative and organisation there are real, hard-working
people.
In January, FSFE was awarded the Theodor Heuss Medal as a "trendsetting
organisation". This recognition for the hard work of the past years was a
good start into the new year.
