<p style="margin: 1.2em 0px !important;">Last year’s event was the
first ever <a
href="https://sfconservancy.org/news/2018/apr/30/copyleft-conf/">CopyleftConf.</a>
It was <a
href="https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2019/feb/22/1stCopyleftConf/">great</a>!
We have <a href="https://2020.copyleftconf.org/video">some
videos up</a> and more are coming. Also, our call for
proposals is <a href="https://2020.copyleftconf.org/cfp">open
now</a>, through the end of the month — we’d love to hear from
you.</p>
<p style="margin: 1.2em 0px !important;">The response was really
positive and we’re looking forward to putting on a fantastic
2020 event. Because last year’s event was so well attended,
we’ve gotten <a href="https://www.tricoterie.be/fr/?lang=en">a
larger venue for this year.</a></p>
<p style="margin: 1.2em 0px !important;">Participants from
throughout the copyleft world — developers, strategists,
enforcement organizations, scholars and critics — will be
welcomed for an in-depth, high bandwidth, and expert-level
discussion about the day-to-day details of using copyleft
licensing, obstacles facing copyleft and the future of copyleft
as a strategy to advance and defend software freedom for users
and developers around the world.</p>
<p style="margin: 1.2em 0px !important;">The event will provide a
friendly and safe place for discussion of copyleft as a key
strategy for defending software freedom.</p>
<p style="margin: 1.2em 0px !important;">Conservancy encourages
everyone to save the date of Monday 3 February 2020 in Brussels,
Belgium for this second CopyleftConf. We’ve chosen the date and
location to ease travel for those already attending FOSDEM the
weekend preceding CopyleftConf.</p>
