<dt><em>I</em> care about copyleft and the GPL. How can I help?</dt>
<dd>Conservancy needs <a href="#donate-box" class="donate-now">your immediate financial
support to proceed with this litigation</a>. Litigation costs are
unpredictable, and this lawsuit may take years to resolve. Conservancy is
prepared to fund this case through its conclusion, but we can only do so
with <a href="/supporter/"><em>your</em> support</a>. If you are an
individual who supports copyleft and wants to see it defended, please
donate now. And, if you make a public statement of support, please email the
URL
to <a href="mailto:info@sfconservancy.org"><info@sfconservancy.org></a>,
as we'd like to include representative selection of supportive statements above.</dd>
<dt>Why is the case in Germany?</dt>
<dd>Copyright infringement claims can be brought anywhere that distribution
of the copyrighted works occur. VMware distributes ESXi throughout the
world, but Germany is close to Christoph's home and his lawyer was
available to do the litigation work there. Finally, historically,
Mr. Jaeger's cases in Germany have usually achieved worldwide compliance on
the products at issue in those cases.</dd>
