Linux Australia Sponsors Conservancy with A$10,000 Donation

Linux Australia just donated A$10,000 to 
Software Freedom Conservancy.  At the closing 
session of this year's linux.conf.au, 
President Hugh Blemings remarked, "On behalf 
of the Council I'd like to announce… that 
we're actually in the process of making a 
significant donation from Linux Australia to 
Software Freedom Conservancy as well. I urge 
all of you to consider contributing 
individual as well, and there is much left 
for us to be done as a community on that 
front."

This donation fulfills that promise to 
sponsor Conservancy's work supporting the 
free and open source software community. 
Conservancy's Executive Director Karen 
Sandler commented, "This donation is very 
meaningful to us both for the monetary amount 
and the fact that it represents such strong 
support from so many individuals who are 
passionate about software freedom and 
Conservancy."

Our thanks to Linux Australia for their 
support of Conservancy and the free and open 
source software community.

Conservancy is currently seeking to raise 
money from individuals in order to continue 
to fulfill its charitable mission. Donations 
that we receive now are matched by Private 
Internet Access and count twice. Please
