April has the legitimacy to represent the players of the Free Software community

Testimony during April's 10th birthday in November 2006.

INL is a society which is deeply involved in the field of Free Software: like all players on the market, we use many Free Software and we try to bring more wealth and innovation. Our innovative project NuFW, which won several titles and is supported by Anvar, is licensed under the terms of GPL.
We believe that April is the key player to represent us, and INL is of course a member of April. April has, in our view, the legitimacy to represent the players of the Free Software community, from the aficionados student to the service company or the publisher, including the independent developer.
It is clear that the share of Free Software is rapidly growing, for various orthogonal reasons, and also thanks to the work done by April over the last 10 years.
April is also a forum for us to meet other companies, other young innovative companies, and larger players, and we also expect these meetings to expand our network of partners involved in Free Software.
