1. FSFE becomes the legal guardian of the OpenSwarm Project

OpenSwarm is the second project to make use of the fiduciary services
of the FSFE Freedom Task Force.  OpenSwarm is planned to be a holistic
set of model-driven software development tools focused on the easy
creation of powerful and business logic enriched applications in the
field of Web- and data-centric solutions.  By signing the Fiduicary
License Agreement (FLA) with FSFE, the project allows FSFE to become
its legal guardian.

2. Transcript of Richard Stallman on the Free Software movement

Ciarán O'Riordan has compiled a transcript of a lecture given by
Richard Stallman in Zagreb.  This speech is certainly a good source of
information about various Free Software related topics.

3. Windows Vista released - FSFE recommends switching to GNU/Linux

FSFE has taken the opportunity of Windows Vista's launch to remind about
the dangers and threats arising from the use of proprietary software. As
many users will have to convert to a new operating system anyway, FSFE
recommends to take the chance to get rid of the chains of proprietary
software and switch to a Free Software solution.

4. Get Active: Join the Revolution!

The internship position in FSFE's office in Zürich is becoming vacant in
March, and FSFE is looking for somebody to continue the series of
interested and motivated interns.  An internship with FSFE is an
interesting, challenging and exciting experience, and there are few
other opportunities to work with a highly dynamical NGO on an
international level.
