In the digital era that is ours, it also aims to inform the public on the dangers of an exclusive appropriation of information an knowledge by private interests. The association is made up of individuals, companies, associations and organizations from various backgrounds who share the values of freedom.</p> <h2>VideoLAN and April</h2> <p>As of today, the VideoLAN association (or non-profit organization) is now a full member of the April association.</p> <p>We have worked together quite a few times, and you might have seen the April&#8217;s campaigns on videolan.org, but we weren&#8217;t officially a member.</p> <p>However, now that VideoLAN has a clean association and status, we were able to formalize this relationship.</p> <p>Let&#8217;s hope it will be for the best.</p> http://www.jbkempf.com/blog/post/2009/10/24/VideoLAN-and-April#comment-form http://www.jbkempf.com/blog/post/2009/10/24/VideoLAN-and-April#comment-form http://www.jbkempf.com/blog/feed/atom/comments/201
