    <p>Software Freedom Conservancy works for your right to repair and modify the software on your devices. <strong>Use The Source</strong> shows you how we evaluate the source code candidates  companies must provide for GPLed software. Join us as we highlight common issues in source candidates, and what companies need to do to fix them.

  <h2 id="submit-a-candidate" class="f2 lh-title ttu mt0 mb2">Submit a Candidate</h2>
  <p>One crucial way to get involved is to let us know about any source candidates you find!  Many devices have an offer for source code (check the manual or device's user interface to find it) and we'd be very interested to know what they send you when you request it.  Here are the steps to submit a new source candidate to list on this page:</p>

  <ol class="pl4">
    <li class="mb2">find a source candidate offered by a company - normally this is offered to you in the manual or user interface of your device, through a link or email address (the company's GitHub page is not canonical, unless they explicitly say so in this offer)</li>

    <li class="mb2"><a href="https://usl-upload.sfconservancy.org/s/4Ykmx7rSGMJ7s43">upload the source candidate</a> to us - write down the file name(s) you uploaded for the next step (can be multiple), and upload a firmware image if you have it and are ok with us publishing it</li>

    <li class="mb2">email us at <a href="mailto:compliance@sfconservancy.org">compliance@sfconservancy.org</a> with the following details:

      <div class="bg-black-10 mt2 pv2 ph3">
        <code>
        Subject: candidate to add: [brand/model]<br><br>

        manufacturer/brand of device:<br>
        model number of device:<br>
        version number of software on device (if applicable):<br>
        filename(s) of source candidate:<br>
        filename(s) of firmware image (if applicable):<br>
        how the firmware image was acquired (if applicable): [direct from device?  download page URL?]<br>
        text of the offer for source (usually required): [write it out, or attach a screenshot/picture]<br>
        where the source or offer for source was found: [manual in box?  CD?  web page adjacent to firmware download?]<br>
      </code>
      </div>

    </li>

    <li class="mb2">wait &#128512;  we will respond and/or post your candidate here, within about 7 days (potentially longer until March 2024, due to a <a href="/usethesource/ccirt-process/">grace period offered to companies who contact us</a>)</li>
  </ol>

  <p>There are many other ways you can help, regardless of whether you're a developer or not - see our <a href="https://sfconservancy.org/copyleft-compliance/help.html">Help Defend Software Freedom and Rights</a> page for details!</p>
