<p>Software Freedom Conservancy is hosting the second FOSSY at Portland State University! A community oriented conference this coming summer.  FOSSY (Free and Open Source Yearly) is focused on the creation and impact of free and open source software, uplifting contributors of all experience. We are also mindful of having a safe environment for all. In this new time of conferences, we will be focused on COVID safety and making sure all attendees feel safe participating as much as they feel comfortable.</p>

<p>For the second year of FOSSY we are continuing with a focus on community and accessibility for the future of software freedom.. With tracks for community building, development and legal and licensing issues, our conference will provide ample learning and networking opportunities for contributors of all levels of experience. We also plan to involve significant community participation in the content of our tracks.</p>
