OSDC conference - Free software/patents?
Hi guys,
so a reminder that the Open Source Developers Conference starts in
Melbourne tomorrow!
http://2010.osdc.com.au/
Hope to see some of you there again - I think last minute tickets may
be available still too.
At the Melb Free software meeting I went to we canvassed the idea of
having your anti-software patent petition there for people to sign -
just wondering if this is going ahead?
If so I'm happy to 'plug' it at the end of my talk, but I'm not
speaking till the Friday afternoon
(http://2010.osdc.com.au/proposal/62/open-sourcing-metropolitan-planning)
so you might want to see if a speaker earlier in the conference would
be happy to as well.

Thanks to everyone who came along last night, especially as I'd forgotten to send out a reminder!
We had six people which provided an interesting discussion on the patents campaign and also on the potential for copyright law changes. Great to meet some new people too. :)
Discussion group meetings are monthly. Here are the next two for your diary:
- Thursday 18 November, 6:30pm at State Library - Thursday 16 December, 6:30pm at State Library
Regards, Ben
