#REDIRECT [[Free Software Foundation]]
From its founding until the mid-1990s, FSF's funds were mostly used to employ software developers to write free software for the GNU Project. Since the mid-1990s, the FSF's employees and volunteers have mostly worked on legal and structural issues for the free software movement and the free software community.
 
Consistent with its goals, only free software is used on FSF's computers. FSF helms the development of [[GNU Emacs]].
