The Free Software Foundation, a nonprofit that manages the GPL copyleft license and promotes the use of free software, is hiring a new campaigns manager. This looks like a sweet gig!

The Campaigns Manager implements the FSF communications strategy and
works as part of a team to develop and implement issue campaigns and
community resources, acting as a spokesperson on matters of software
freedom. The Campaigns Manager handles writing, editing, speaking,
and research related to these activist and program efforts; coordinates
the GNU Chief Webmaster and the other webmaster volunteers to develop
FSF and GNU web sites; plans and implements proposals to increase
fundraising; and serves as a main point of contact between the
Foundation and the free software community.
