title: The GNU Assembly
frontpage: yes
---
Here’s what “GNU” means to us:
- Gathering under a New Umbrella —
[We](/en/people),
maintainers and contributors of [well-known free software
projects](/en/software), are making this place our new home, fighting
for the freedom of computer users and hacking the good hack.
- Governance, Not Unilateralism — This new home is governed by those
who build it following [common goals and sharing the same
values](/en/documents/social-contract). The
[Assembly](https://lists.gnu.tools/hyperkitty/list/assembly@lists.gnu.tools/)
is where we discuss day-to-day operation and
the general direction of our umbrella project, including its
[governance](/en/documents/governance), transparently.
- This Group’s Not Uniform — We have common goals but also different
backgrounds, and we view it as a strength. Our interactions in this
project are subject to its [code of
conduct](/en/documents/code-of-conduct).
- GNU’s Novelty is Unequaled — We contribute to [projects](/en/software) that go back
to the roots of [free software](/en/documents/free-software).
These projects and newer ones are
leading in their own domain and we plan to keep it that way.
- GNU Needs U! — It’s about building a software commons to empower
computer users. We need you — as a user, developer, speaker,
coordinator, translator, designer, system administrator: if you share [our
goals](/en/documents/social-contract), bring your own
contributions!
If you’re a GNU maintainer or contributor and you share that vision,
[join us now](/en/contribute)!
