(FC-Devel) FreeCase

["sami.bengrine" <sami.bengrine@infonie.be>]

Hi everybody,

I would like to share with you a very nice email from Richard Alam (see
below).

I think it's a bright idea. When we have a good piece of software, it would
be nice to set up a FreeCase fundation with a well known international
charity organization. This would garanty that our software remains free and
that any potential profit goes to back to the community - so goes back to
you.

Thanks

    Sami Ben Grine
    FreeCase project coordinator
