Be the first to know when and where to meet with Richard Stallman
Richard Stallman launched the development of the GNU operating system (see www.gnu.org) in 1984. GNU is free software: everyone has the freedom to copy it and redistribute it, as well as to make changes either large or small. The GNU/Linux system, basically the GNU operating system with Linux added, is used on tens of millions of computers today. Stallman has received the ACM Grace Hopper Award, a MacArthur Foundation fellowship, the Electronic Frontier Foundation's Pioneer award, and the the Takeda Award for Social/Economic Betterment, as well as several honorary doctorates.
Richard Stallman will be speaking on the following
topics during his tour:
- A Just Digital Society
- Free Software in ethics and in practice
- Copyright vs Community in the Age of
Computer Networks
- Advanced Emacs Editing (Workshop)
- Emacs Lisp Programming (Workshop)
