Projects and organizations

Here are some organizations and projects where I participate at several levels. I invite you to find out more about them and their missions – and, why not, perhaps even contribute, become a member or make a donation!

Software in the Public Interest (SPI)

Software in the Public Interest (SPI) is a non-profit organization based in the U.S.A. which was founded to help organizations develop and distribute open hardware and software. We encourage programmers to use the GNU General Public License or other licenses that allow free redistribution and use of software, and hardware developers to distribute documentation that will allow device drivers to be written for their product.

SPI acts as a fiscal sponsor to many free and open source projects, like Debian, ArchLinux, LibreOffice, _OFTC_, etc.
