<p>Conservancy and

  its <a href="/about/board">directors</a>, <a href="/about/officers">officers</a>,

  and <a href="/about/staff">staff</a> believe strongly in the principles

  of software freedom, and believe that all users should have the right to

  study, improve and share their software.  Conservancy helps protect,

  enable, coordinate, facilitate and defend the public's right to copy,

  share, modify and redistribute FLOSS both non-commercially and

  commercially.  Finally, like most organizations devoted to FLOSS,

  Conservancy opposes the notion of patents that cover software, and urges

  its <a href="/about/filings/">public filings available on its website</a>.

  Conservancy does for its member projects</a> is also available.</p>
