My impressions of the first annual Boost Conference are now online at The C++ Source for your reading pleasure. Enjoy!
"Boost may in the near future join the Software Freedom Conservancy, an umbrella organization of Free and Open Source Software projects. The Conservancy gives free financial and administrative services to its members..." One just wonders how "free financial and administrative services" can transform to: (visit guidestar.org) "FORM 990, PART II, LINE 25 - OFFICER COMPENSATION SCHEDULE =========================================================== PROGRAM MANAGMENT OFFICER NAME AND TYPE OF COMPENSATION SERVICES AND GENERAL EBEN MOGLEN COMPENSATION: 116,875. 38,959." -- SOFTWARE FREEDOM LAW CENTER, INC. (visit guidestar.org) (Eben's SFLC compensated underlings aside for a moment) and whether you (boost moderators & Co. so to speak) would be able to spend more for "future events such as BoostCon, and also to pay for much needed infrastructure" without Eben's SFLC involvement. What's the problem to take donations without SFLC? regards, alexander.
