+		<description>&lt;p&gt;A blog post from my fellow Debian developer Paul Wise titled
+&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://bonedaddy.net/pabs3/log/2015/11/27/sfc-supporter/&quot;&gt;The
+GPL is not magic pixie dust&lt;/a&gt;&quot; explain the importance of making sure
+the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html&quot;&gt;GPL&lt;/a&gt; is enforced.
+I quote the blog post from Paul in full here with his permission:&lt;p&gt;
+
+&lt;blockquote&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/supporter/&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/img/supporter-badge.png&quot; width=&quot;194&quot; height=&quot;90&quot; alt=&quot;Become a Software Freedom Conservancy Supporter!&quot; align=&quot;right&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;blockquote&gt;
+The GPL is not magic pixie dust. It does not work by itself.&lt;br/&gt;
+
+The first step is to choose a
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://copyleft.org/&quot;&gt;copyleft&lt;/a&gt; license for your
+code.&lt;br/&gt;
+
+The next step is, when someone fails to follow that copyleft license,
+&lt;b&gt;it must be enforced&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
+
+and its a simple fact of our modern society that such type of
+work&lt;br/&gt;
+
+is incredibly expensive to do and incredibly difficult to do.
+&lt;/blockquote&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;small&gt;-- &lt;a href=&quot;http://ebb.org/bkuhn/&quot;&gt;Bradley Kuhn&lt;/a&gt;, in
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://faif.us/&quot; title=&quot;Free as in Freedom&quot;&gt;FaiF&lt;/a&gt;
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://faif.us/cast/2015/nov/24/0x57/&quot;&gt;episode
+0x57&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;As the Debian Website
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.debian.org/794116&quot;&gt;used&lt;/a&gt;
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/webwml/webwml/english/intro/free.wml?r1=1.24&amp;amp;r2=1.25&quot;&gt;to&lt;/a&gt;
+imply, public domain and permissively licensed software can lead to
+the production of more proprietary software as people discover useful
+software, extend it and or incorporate it into their hardware or
+software products.  Copyleft licenses such as the GNU GPL were created
+to close off this avenue to the production of proprietary software but
+such licenses are not enough.  With the ongoing adoption of Free
+Software by individuals and groups, inevitably the community&#39;s
+expectations of license compliance are violated, usually out of
+ignorance of the way Free Software works, but not always.  As Karen
+and Bradley explained in &lt;a href=&quot;http://faif.us/&quot; title=&quot;Free as in
+Freedom&quot;&gt;FaiF&lt;/a&gt;
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://faif.us/cast/2015/nov/24/0x57/&quot;&gt;episode 0x57&lt;/a&gt;,
+copyleft is nothing if no-one is willing and able to stand up in court
+to protect it.  The reality of today&#39;s world is that legal
+representation is expensive, difficult and time consuming.  With
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://gpl-violations.org/&quot;&gt;gpl-violations.org&lt;/a&gt; in hiatus
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://gpl-violations.org/news/20151027-homepage-recovers/&quot;&gt;until&lt;/a&gt;
+some time in 2016, the &lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/&quot;&gt;Software
+Freedom Conservancy&lt;/a&gt; (a tax-exempt charity) is the major defender
+of the Linux project, Debian and other groups against GPL violations.
+In March the SFC supported a
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/news/2015/mar/05/vmware-lawsuit/&quot;&gt;lawsuit
+by Christoph Hellwig&lt;/a&gt; against VMware for refusing to
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/linux-compliance/vmware-lawsuit-faq.html&quot;&gt;comply
+with the GPL&lt;/a&gt; in relation to their use of parts of the Linux
+kernel.  Since then two of their sponsors pulled corporate funding and
+conferences
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2015/nov/24/faif-carols-fundraiser/&quot;&gt;blocked
+or cancelled their talks&lt;/a&gt;.  As a result they have decided to rely
+less on corporate funding and more on the broad community of
+individuals who support Free Software and copyleft.  So the SFC has
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/news/2015/nov/23/2015fundraiser/&quot;&gt;launched&lt;/a&gt;
+a &lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/supporter/&quot;&gt;campaign&lt;/a&gt; to create
+a community of folks who stand up for copyleft and the GPL by
+supporting their work on promoting and supporting copyleft and Free
+Software.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;If you support Free Software,
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2015/nov/26/like-what-I-do/&quot;&gt;like&lt;/a&gt;

+work on a project that is an SFC
