  • FY 2011 Annual Report
    We're software roadies. Software Freedom Conservancy is a public charity that acts as a non-profit home for dozens of Free, Libre, and Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects. Conservancy©s charitable mission is to help improve, develop, and defend FLOSS, and we do that by providing business, legal, and administrative services to our member projects. We have the honor of working with member projects comprised of, in our humble opinion, many of the best software developers in the world. Some of our member projects develop system software so ubiquitous that it permeates virtually every part of our society©s electronics-driven lifestyle. Other member projects are redefining how software will be written and even how computer science will be taught to the next generation of developers. Still others find their niche by solving a small-but- persistent problem better than anyone else ± and attract a cult following of users because of it. And, best of all, all of our member projects release their software under a license that allows the public to study, use, improve, and share the source code. Conservancy provides all of our ªrock starº member projects with a comprehensive suite of services, and then we get out of their way to let them do what they do best: write great software for the public©s benefit. Our structure. Conservancy acts as a fiscal sponsor to our member projects. We©ve engaged the leadership of each member project©s developer community and executed a fiscal sponsorship agreement that allows us to adopt that project as an official part of Conservancy©s corporate structure.

    Technology Overview - BackupEDGE™ Introduction to the New Features in BackupEDGE 3.x Technology Overview BackupEDGE has a long history of providing reliable data protection for New Features many thousands of users. As operating systems, storage devices and BackupEDGE 3.x usage needs and tendencies have changed over the years, it has continuously met the challenge of providing inexpensive, stable backup and disaster recovery on a variety of UNIX and Linux platforms. Clients routinely find new and clever ways to utilize products. Storage devices have taken on new and exciting features, and incredible capacities. Products designed years ago had built-in limits that were thought to be beyond comprehension. Today, these limits are routinely exceeded. The need for data security is even more apparent. We’re constantly asking our To continue to meet the evolving needs of our clients, we are always clients what tools our asking what features of our products they find most useful, what products need to serve them improvements we can make, and what new requirements they have. better. We’ve used this knowledge to map out new product strategies designed to anticipate the needs of the next generation of users, systems and storage products. This has resulted in the creation of BackupEDGE 3.x, with a combination of internal improvements, new features and enhanced infrastructure designed to become the backbone of a new generation of storage software. Summary of Major Changes and Additions BackupEDGE 3.x features include: • Improvements to partition sizing, UEFI table cleanup after DR, and SharpDrive debugging (03.04.01 build 3). • Support for Rocky Linux 8.4 and AlmaLinux 8.4 (03.04.01 build 2).

It is the recommended replacement for Python’s original platform.linux_distribution() function, but it provides much more functionality. An alternative implementation became necessary because Python 3.5 deprecated this function, and Python 3.8 will remove it altogether. Its predecessor function platform.dist() was already deprecated since Python 2.6 and will also be removed in Python 3.8. Still, there are many cases in which access to OS distribution information is needed. See Python issue 1322 for more information. If you want to jump into the API description right away, read about the consolidated accessor functions. 3 Linux Distribution - a Linux OS platform information API, Release 1.3.0 4 Chapter 1. Overview and motivation CHAPTER 2 Compatibility The distro package is supported on Python 2.7, 3.4+ and PyPy, and on any Linux or *BSD distribution that provides one or more of the data sources used by this package.
