+In response to requests during the FOSDEM Legal and Policy
+DevRoom, which is coordinated by a team of four that includes
+Conservancy's own Bradley M. Kuhn and Karen M. Sandler, Conservancy
+will organize a separate conference on the day following FOSDEM 2019,
+in Brussels, Belgium, called: The Annual International Copyleft
+Conference, or CopyleftConf for short.
+
+Participants from throughout the copyleft world — developers,
+strategists, enforcement organizations, scholars and critics — will be
+welcomed for an in-depth, high bandwidth, and expert-level discussion
+about the day-to-day details of using copyleft licensing, obstacles
+facing copyleft and the future of copyleft as a strategy to advance and
+defend software freedom for users and developers around the world.
+
+The event will provide a friendly and safe place for discussion of
+copyleft as a key strategy for defending software freedom.
+
+Conservancy encourages everyone to save the date of Monday 4 February
+2019 in Brussels, Belgium for this first CopyleftConf. We've chosen the
+date and location to ease travel for those already attending FOSDEM the
+weekend preceding CopyleftConf.
