What is LibrePlanet?

The LibrePlanet project is a global network of free software activists and teams working together to help further the ideals of software freedom by advocating and contributing to free software.

February's featured resource: End Software Patents Group

End Software Patents is a campaign to abolish software patents, globally. To achieve this, we must either change the law, change the practice of patent offices, or participate in court cases to secure rulings confirming that patents on software ideas are not valid. Check out the group for ways to get involved in this campaign.
