<p>2020 has been a difficult year. We&rsquo;ve all scrambled to keep ourselves

and our loved-ones safe and healthy, coped with the isolation connected

to lockdowns and quarantines, and dealt with the

disconnection from our support networks — including friends, family

and even childcare. We worried about racial equality and hope the fight for

social justice will result in basic rights that everyone deserves.</p>

<p>Throughout all of this, Conservancy remained focused on its mission and on

the free and open source software community. While cheering those working to help prevent the

spread of COVID-19 and those fighting for racial equality, we know our

expertise, skills, and mission can only tangentially improve those situations. While

<a href="/blog/2020/apr/21/workduringcovid/">contributing

where we can</a>, we remain focused on the long-term nature of

software freedom. We keep working to grow and support FOSS

communities to plan for ethical technology down the road, so that software

freedom can be in the service of human freedom.</p>

<p>We&rsquo;re proud of how much we&rsquo;ve been able to accomplish in the last year,

even in the face of so many obstacles.</p>

<a class="expander" data-expand-link-text="(Expand All Sections)"></a>

<div data-read-more="Read more about our new member projects and board member&hellip;">

<p>In 2020, Conservancy welcomed two important new projects.  The <a href="/news/2020/jul/21/ICRjoins/">Institute for Computing in Research</a> runs a mentoring program designed to bridge inequities in tech by training teenage students to do rigorous scientific research using free software. <a href="/news/2020/sep/10/openwrt-joins/">OpenWrt</a> is a critical FOSS wireless router project that demonstrates the long lasting positive  results of strategic GPL enforcement. We also recognize that communities change over time. In addition to adding new projects, we took the time this past year to sunset some of our projects that no longer had a charitable focus.</p>

<p>We were also pleased to welcome <a href="/news/2020/jan/03/arandal/">Allison Randal</a>, a steadfast advocate of software freedom, to our Board of Directors.</p>

</div>

<h3 id="Events">Events and Conferences</h3>

<div data-read-more="Read more about our events and conferences&hellip;">

<p>FOSS events and conferences have always been an essential component of FOSS,

but this year, the pandemic thwarted our usual event system an infrastructure.

Conservancy has been at the center of transitioning events to online formats for

both our  member

projects and other third party  other FOSS conferences and event groups.  People around the world took huge losses in travel and event

cancellations, but we were adept.  We acted early and saved tens of thousands for

our member projects by negotiating with canceled venues.  We quickly adjusted

our travel policy to handle pandemic refund procedures, and we posted those changes publicly for other organizations to benefit.  When it’s safe and healthy for everyone to travel again, we plan to organize Copyleft Conf, SeConf, and the dozens of in-person hackfests.  Meanwhile, we have and will continue to

help our projects cancel or reschedule their events and, as we did for our member projects like Racket and Selenium, to operate as virtual events this year.</p>

<p>We were lucky that Copyleft Conf 2020 was timed before the

pandemic was upon us, and that event was an amazing success.  We reached out and welcomed non-FOSS licensors who seek to use

<a href="https://archive.org/details/copyleftconf2020-ehmke">copyleft for social justice</a> to begin dialogue.  To this day, it remains the

only <a href="https://archive.org/details/copyleftconf2020-ethical-licensing">discussion</a> of its kind, and the <a href="https://archive.org/details/@sfconservancy?and[]=subject%3A%22copyleftconf2020%22">videos</a> are

still available for your virtual viewing.  We plan to turn

Copyleft Conf 2021 into a year-long series of online sessions about issues in copyleft

as we look hopefully forward to an in-person Copyleft Conf 2022.</p>

</div>

<p>We participated in many exciting events organized by others. Before travel was canceled, we  presented multiple talks at LCA and on the FOSDEM main stage, helped organize the Legal &amp; Policy DevRoom at FOSDEM, spoke to students and faculty at Oxford University, ran a workshop at Open Source 101 and delivered keynotes at CHAOSScon, Git Merge and the OpenUK Healthcare event. Once in-person events were no longer possible, we participated in many virtual events, including GUADEC, DebConf, ÖzgürKon and State of the Source. Our Executive Director was a featured speaker at VentCon, a conference urgently organized in May for folks working on FOSS projects for ventilators at a time when making sure that hospitals had enough access to ventilators to treat the surge in COVID-19 patients was a top concern.</p>

<p>We also remain ready to continue our work of helping to sponsor travel for our member projects and their events when travel becomes safe again. Before we ceased our conferences and travel, we funded over $60,000 worth of travel to important events, on pace for what could have been one of our biggest travel sponsorship years.  We invested remaining travel funds into improving online infrastructure and planning

for how to keep FOSS engaged without these essential in-person events.</p>

<h3 id="HelpUs">Help Us Continue our Mission</h3>

<p>We know this year brought unforeseen financial challenges.  Some of you have

faced unemployment, and many others are underemployed right now due to the

pandemic.  As you think about where to route your limited charitable

dollars this year, we ask that you think about how far your donation goes with Conservancy.  We’ve remained a small, agile organization (some

even have called us scrappy) precisely because we have the most experienced

non-profit management team in FOSS.  We couldn’t have predicted the

pandemic, but we did plan for the worst.  We’re frugal, careful, and we plan ahead, so you can know that every

dollar you give to Conservancy is used to support critical work.  While companies sell

you products this end of year season, we offer you a chance to donate to something much bigger. By becoming a Conservancy Sustainer, you can put

your money to work fighting for the freedom and rights of all software

users.</p>

<h3 id="VintageT">Vintage T-Shirt Promotion</h3>

<div data-read-more="Would you like a last chance to receive a vintage Conservancy t-shirt?  Find out how&hellip;">

<p>If you're a Sustainer, you've already received or will soon receive a

  t-shirt in our 2018 design shown here.   But,

would you like to take advantage of a last chance to get our vintage design — seen sported so often

by <a href="https://twitter.com/bensturmfels/status/599118574641262592">our earliest Sustainers</a> at <a href="https://twitter.com/conservancy/status/786480068512002048">conferences and events</a>?  If so, read on!</p>

<p><strong>UPDATE: Just give $256 total for this year's fundraiser and

    receive an additional vintage T-shirt!</strong></p>

<p>But first, as a note to how difficult this year has been, we know that many of our 2019 Sustainers are still

awaiting their t-shirts, which have the wonderful 2018 design.   We've had difficulty working through

keeping our staff safe during the pandemic lock downs and making trips to the post office — historically,

we on staff all shared the post office trips, but we all have different COVID-19 risk factors and thus it's all moving

slowly.  We appreciate the patience of our Sustainers waiting for t-shirts, and we do have plan to safely send out

the backlog by years' end.</p>

<p>As part of those preparations, we found a treasure trove and now have an exciting promotion for renewing

Sustainers.  We found an old stash of <strong>vintage t-shirts</strong>, in the old style!  Supplies are limited,

but for those few sustainers who would like to receive one, we have a special offer.  Sustainers who give

$256 or more between 2020-01-15 and 2021-01-15 can receive one of these vintage t-shirts!  To claim your vintage t-shirt, do the following:

<div class="picture-tiny right">

  <p>Neil McGovern wearing that stylish vintage shirt!</p>

</div>

    <ul>

    <li>Renew as a <a href="/sustainer/#annual">an annual sustainer</a> for $256 or more. (Alternatively, if

      you already gave this year, make a <a href="/donate/">separate donation</a> so that your 2020 total is $256.)</li>

      <li> <a href="mailto:vintaget@sfconservancy.org">Email &lt;vintaget@sfconservancy.org&gt;</a> and include the email

      address and date(s) of your donation(s) that total $256 and your

        desired size.  (We have all sizes <strong>except MenM</strong> in

      stock.   Supplies <em>are</em> limited; we cannot necessarily guarantee

      your size selection, and we'll continue to update here as sizes run out.)</li>

      </ul></p>

<div class="picture-small left">

  <img src="/img/2020-12-04_lots-vintage-shirts.jpg" alt="A big stack of vintage Conservancy t-shirts!" />

  <p>Supplies won't last; give $256 and make one of these vintage shirts yours today!</p>

</div>

<p>You too can look cool in the vintage design.  Or maybe your original has faded and you're ready to spruce up with a new one?  As we said,

supplies are limited so make a big donation today, support Conservancy, and show you've always been old-school — or just

want to look that way!</p>
