Thanks. I don't think I'd seen those before and it seems that the text about members only is misleading. Anyway, what I guessed is basically true AFAICT. There's the following breakdown of participants' affiliations: 5 consortium; 9 education; 4 government; 1 private business; 1 private corporation; 35 private for-profit company; 7 private non-profit company; 3 project; 53 public corporation; 1 organisation since joined public corporation; 12 unknown. Meanwhile, in the UK, 20% of people work in the public sector (about 10% of GPLv3 above) and about 16% are members of cooperatives (none above).

So far, no take-up for the SW, but I'll give it a few days. -- MJ Ray http://mjr.towers.org.uk/email.html tel:+44-844-4437-237 - Webmaster-developer, statistician, sysadmin, online shop builder, consumer and workers co-operative member http://www.ttllp.co.uk/ - Writing on koha, debian, sat TV, Kewstoke http://mjr.towers.org.uk/ _______________________________________________ Fsfe-uk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fsfe-uk
