summary

A nonprofit hosts 40 projects and runs Outreachy internships to widen contributor demographics; a personal case about an implanted defibrillator with closed‑source firmware and a 2–3% per year sudden‑death risk sparks a research campaign into open medical device software. The concrete claims: strong copyleft reduces governance overhead and preserves an even playing field, companies often push short‑term decisions, and a new contract patch effort supplies negotiable employment clauses so contributors can keep copyrights and avoid downstream capture.
