Details

This talk is by Dr. Roy Schestowitz on "Present and future threats to software freedom":

"The freedom of the software we use constantly faces challenges that it must recognise in order to address. In this presentation, several of them are highlighted and examples are given."

Dr. Roy Schestowitz: "Software Engineer, interdisciplinary researcher, and an advocate of fair competition; holds a doctoral degree in Medical Biophysics" and a big fan of software freedom and GNU/Linux.

Location

The meeting will take place at the usual time, 7pm, at the Lass O' Gowrie pub on Charles Street in Central Manchester. We will be located in the Salmon Room upstairs, although there will be people around a little earlier downstairs (probably sampling the food and drinks on offer). Just ask at the bar if you can't find us. The Lass website has full details of how to get there and the fine selection of food and drink available. The venue also provides wifi.

If you would like five minutes to tell us about something, please send an email to fsuk-manchester-team@nongnu.org.
