The new organization, started by Bradley Kuhn, Eben Moglen, and Daniel Ravicher, will serve to provide member projects with free financial management and administrative services.

      The FSF does nothing but good - I'm willing to bet most of the work done by attorneys for this Conservancy will be pro-bono.

      I bet you're just a conservative annoyed by them calling it a 'Conservancy' ;-)
