The GNOME Foundation supports the GNOME project goal of creating a computing platform for use by the general public that is completely free software.
To achieve this goal, the Foundation coordinates releases of GNOME and determines which
projects are part of GNOME. The Foundation acts as the official voice for the GNOME project, providing a means of communication with the press and with commercial and noncommercial organizations interested in GNOME software. The foundation sponsors GNOME-related technical conferences, represents GNOME at relevant conferences sponsored by others, helps create technical standards for the project and promotes the use and development of GNOME software.
