against VMware</a>, which is the first lawsuit on derivative works and the
GPL. While this work is extremely important to the continued long-term
success of software freedom and copyleft not to mention in the long term
interest of the industry as a whole, it makes fundraising from companies
very difficult. Some companies
have withdrawn from funding us and some have even successfully pressured
conferences to cancel or prevent talks on our enforcement work. We do
this work because we think that it is good for everyone in the long run,
because we know it is the right thing to do, and because we know that we are
in the best position to do it. But that's not enough — you have to think it's
right too and <a href="#donate-box" class="donate-now">show us by
becoming a Supporter now</a>.</p>

<h4>It's up to you</h4>
<p>We have raised enough money to continue the VMware case, but our overall
enforcement work needs additional support to be able to continue. As we
state in
the <a href="/copyleft-compliance/principles.html">Principles
of Community-Oriented GPL Enforcement</a>, we cannot prioritize profit in
these actions without compromising on the end goals of that work which is to
help companies become free and open source software users and contributors.
<p>Moreover, we have lost committed general funding from companies explicitly
because of our enforcement work. Continuing this work without individual
support is no longer possible.</p>
<p>As a result, we need 2,500 Supporters in order to maintain the staff and
resources in the organization to properly undertake enforcement. We hope you
will <a href="#donate-box" class="donate-now">sign up as a Supporter</a>
to help us achieve this. If we don't reach our goal, we will have no choice
but to hibernate enforcement until we have the resources to pick it up
properly at some point in the future.</p>
<p>If you care about the
GPL, <a href="#donate-box" class="donate-now">help us meet our goal</a>
so we can stand up for the GPL together.</p>
