Bring back Free Software funding: Give your feedback to the European Commission
Free Software (like LibreOffice) is about far more than just zero-cost. It’s about the freedom to use, share and modify the software that we all rely on. Our friends over at the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) write:
The European Commission has cut important funds for Free Software. The non-transparent decision shows the need for sustainable long-term funding to allow the EU to control its own technology. Raise your voice and take part in an ongoing consultation to ask for sustainable long-term funds for software freedom.
They provide information on how to participate in the consultation (which closes on 20 September!) so give them a hand.
