[Fsuk-manchester] Join the FSF

[Michael Dorrington]

So I've finally got around to joining the FSF (member #9429) and I even
get to appear on ThankGNUs 2011¹. So now I can recommend that *you* join
the FSF as I won't be a hypocrite. :)

The FSF have been very supportive of MFS. They have provide us with free
software related merchandise such as books, stickers and badges. Our
site² is on LibrePlanet, the "growing global network of free software
hackers and activists" created by the FSF, and our mailing list is on
the FSF's nongnu.org³. And as
https://my.fsf.org/associate/support_freedom says:
"Join with over 3,000 active members in 48 countries, representing a
diverse membership of computer users, software engineers, hackers,
students, and freedom activists.

When you sign up as a member, you join an informed society working
together to make a better world: one respectful of individual freedoms,
rights, and privacy, built on free software."
