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.

Help us reach our fundraising goal of $400,000 USD by January 1, 2026. We can't protect and continue the hard work of our predecessors without your help.

This month's featured resource

Group:FSF:Tech_Team_Volunteers

For this month, we are highlighting Group: FSF:Tech Team Volunteers. The FSF tech team wants your help! The FSF Tech Team consists of two full-time staff members (plus an intern or two sometimes). Along with teams of volunteers (such as the Savannah hackers and the GNU webmasters), we maintain and improve the infrastructure and services that power the free software movement. Starting in 2023, our small team began steps to increase the number and types of tasks that we can accept volunteer help with. Whether you have a few hours a week or a few hours every couple of months, please read on and consider joining in! You are invited to help update, adopt, spread, and improve this important resource.
