Petition to get FLOSS contributors the same rights and status as other volunteers in other fields

This petition wants contributing to Free Software to be legally and officially recognized as volunteering in Germany on the same level as youth work or ambulance service:

This would bring fiscal and funding advantages for FLOSS organizations and the volunteers themselves.

If you are a German citizen, please sign the petition and let's get our volunteers the recognition they deserve!

Do you have something similar in your country? Why not help your national FLOSS projects get the status and support they often desperately need? Start your own petition!
