Software Freedom Conservancy appoints Kuhn as full-time executive director

The Software Freedom Conservancy (SFC) has announced the appointment of Bradley M. Kuhn as its full-time executive director. The SFC provides a non-profit home for member free software projects—such as Mercurial, BusyBox, Samba, Inkscape, and 18 others—without the projects having to obtain and maintain individual non-profit status. "Kuhn brings to Conservancy two decades of experience in software freedom volunteerism and ten years of non-profit management and organizational experience. From 2001 to 2005, Kuhn was Executive Director of the Free Software Foundation in Boston, MA. More recently, from 2005 to 2010, Kuhn worked as Policy Analyst and Technology Director of the Software Freedom Law Center (SFLC)." On his blog, and the SFC blog, Kuhn adds: "For four years, I have worked part-time on nights, weekends, and lunch times to keep Conservancy running and to implement and administer the services that Conservancy provides to its member projects. It's actual quite a relief to now have full-time attention available to carry out this important work."
