The GPL Compliance Project for Linux Developers is comprised of copyright +holders in the kernel, Linux, who have contributed to Linux under its +license, the +GPLv2. These copyright holders have formally asked Conservancy to engage +in compliance efforts for their copyrights in the Linux kernel.
+ +Historically, Conservancy was well-known for its ongoing license +compliance efforts on behalf of its BusyBox member project. In May +2012, Conservancy +announced a coordinated compliance effort on behalf of its BusyBox and +Samba projects, and also launched this unique project, called the GPL +Compliance Project for Linux Developers, which handles compliance and +enforcement activities on behalf of more than a dozen Linux copyright +holders.
+ +Conservancy's GPL Compliance Project is run in a collaborative manner with +the project developers. All copyright holders involved have the opportunity +to give input and guidance on Conservancy's strategy in dealing with +compliance issues. Thus, all Conservancy's compliance matter have full +support of relevant copyright holders.
+ +Conservancy is dedicated to encouraging all users of software to comply + with Free Software licenses. Toward this goal, in its compliance efforts, + Conservancy helps distributors of Free Software in a friendly spirit of + cooperation and participation.
+ +Those who are interested in how Conservancy handles GPL enforcement and + compliance work should read in + detail our + blog post outlining the compliance process.
+ +If you are aware of a license violation or compliance issue regarding + Linux, or + any Conservancy member + project (and in particular BusyBox, Evergreen, Inkscape, Mercurial, + Samba, Sugar Labs, or Wine), + please contact us by email at + <compliance@sfconservancy.org>.
+ +Finally, Conservancy welcomes donations in support of the GPL Compliance Project + for Linux Developers. Just use the PayPal link on this page or any of our other donation + methods listed. Be sure to mention “GPL Compliance Project for + Linux Developers” in the memo line or description field of the + donation.
