Announcing the Second Annual CopyleftConf!

[Zenaan Harkness]

So, to those who actually value software freedom, there is only one
relevant question right now:

  Is Richard Stallman speaking at this event?


If not, I will NOT attend!

I shall maintain this position for the rest of my life (I'm not yet
50).

If YOU can't defend those who defend software freedom, you are a
fraud and a hypocrite!

Play the ball, not the man - you must handle all complaints with
dignity, for all parties, especially those "accused".
