-TODO: write me
+I'm pleased to announce the publication of [Write Free Software](/) today! This
+website is a new resource for the Free Software community which aims to provide
+a comprehensive and accessible entry-point and reference for the free software
+movement. We aim to educate others on free software philosophy and practice, to
+help people understand why free software is important and how to put it into
+practice.
+
+Come here to learn things like:
+
+- [What is free software?](https://writefreesoftware.org/learn/)
+- [How do free software licenses work?](https://writefreesoftware.org/learn/licenses/)
+- [How does copyleft work?](https://writefreesoftware.org/learn/copyleft/)
+- [How to choose a free software license](https://writefreesoftware.org/learn/participate/choose-a-license/)
+- [How to re-use free software](https://writefreesoftware.org/learn/participate/derived-works/)
+
+And [much more](https://writefreesoftware.org/learn/)!
+
+The main content area of Write Free Software provides a lot of useful
+informational resources about how free software works and how its principles can
+be applied, but that's not all there is to free software. The [blog][1], though
+it's just getting started, will provide a lot more free-form resources to help
+maintainers and contributors better understand how to work effectively in free
+software.
+
+Future topics for the blog include:
+
+[1]: /blog
+
+- Building and managing your free software communities
+- Breakdowns of specific free software licenses
+- Commercial participation in free software
+- The importance of copyleft in practice
+
+Want to help with these or any other ideas?
