FSF sounds like the best candidate to me; CC a distant second, since I there's not a lot of good value in their licensing for software purposes, although they've had good impact in other content areas, and Fedora's primary mission is the advancement of free software. I would be circumspect about EFF and other groups that could reasonably be considered more politically charged. -- Paul W.
