The Spat Heard Around the Community

At SFLC, we have been more than watching these developments. By careful repeated experimentation with the new procedures, we have built confidence in our ability to interact favorably and reliably with the Service’s new application types and review procedures. We can now confidently take a free software project from scratch through state incorporation, governance formation, application for federal tax deductibility, to complete legal and fiscal independent self-governance, with the right to receive tax-deductible contributions, in 90 to 120 days, or even less.

This transformation gives us and our clients the best of both worlds.

About a month ago, the Software Freedom Law Center (SFLC), _the not-for-profit law firm _which
launched Conservancy in 2006 and served as Conservancy’s law firm until July 2011, took the bizarre and frivolous _step of filing a legal action in the United States Patent and Trademark Office seeking cancellation of Conservancy’s trademark for our name, “Software Freedom
Conservancy”.
_

Conservancy is currently home to forty-six member projects.

On Friday, while we were putting on our _annual conference_at Columbia Law School, a puff of near-apocalyptic rhetoric about us was _published_by SFLC’s former employees, Karen Sandler and Bradley Kuhn, who now manage the Conservancy, which was originally established and wholly funded by SFLC, and still bears our name. We were busy with our conference when this happened, which seems to have been the point. We are glad to have the chance now, after a little much-needed rest, to help everyone avoid unnecessary hyperventilation.
