Friday Free Software Directory IRC meetup: May 26th starting at 12:00 p.m. EDT/16:00 UTC

Participate in supporting the Directory by adding new entries and updating existing ones. We will be on IRC in the #fsf channel on irc.freenode.org.

Tens of thousands of people visit directory.fsf.org each month to discover free software. Each entry in the Directory contains a wealth of useful information, from basic category and descriptions, to providing detailed info about version control, IRC channels, documentation, and licensing info that has been carefully checked by FSF staff and trained volunteers.

While the Directory has been and continues to be a great resource to the world over the past decade, it has the potential of being a resource of even greater value. But it needs your help!

A lot of great work is being done keeping the Directory up to date. But it must keep growing if it is to be a useful resource. This week we'll be working on adding new entries to the Directory, and reviewing packages that haven't been reviewed yet. We'll also be looking to launch a new project that could greatly increase the number of works in the Directory.

If you are eager to help and you can't wait or are simply unable to make it onto IRC on Friday, our participation guide will provide you with all the information you need to get started on helping the Directory today! There are also weekly Directory Meeting pages that everyone is welcome to contribute to before, during, and after each meeting.
