Sourceware joins Software Freedom Conservancy
After various discussions and lots of positive feedback Software Freedom Conservancy and Sourceware proudly announce that Sourceware today joins SFC as a member project!
For almost 25 years Sourceware has been the long-time home of various core toolchain project communities. Projects like Cygwin, a UNIX API for Win32 systems, the GNU Toolchain, including GCC, the GNU Compiler Colection, two C libraries, glibc and newlib, binary tools, binutils and elfutils, debuggers and profilers, GDB, systemtap and valgrind. Sourceware also hosts standard groups like gnu-gabi and the DWARF Debugging Standard. See the full list project hosted and services provided on the Sourceware projects page.
As the fiscal host of Sourceware, Software Freedom Conservancy will provide a home for fundraising, legal protection and governance that will benefit all projects under Sourceware’s care. We share one mission: developing, distributing and advocating for Software Freedom. Together we will offer a worry-free, friendly home for core toolchain and developer tool projects.
