New York City: All Five Boroughs

Ideas for getting Free Software across to public.

• FSF could start a small college to develop software?

• • Well, ok, that's tough, but maybe a course that would help people learn about Free Software development process.
  • But, on the other hand, isn't that too Open-Source-y, not getting the politics out to people.
  • Can we show young people and students the community aspects?
  • Ethics have to be part of teaching development methodology

• How many people are off giving talks? How do we get more people giving talks?
  • Could prepared speeches be made available?
  • no, we need tools and people to help them to learn how to speak.

• Shouldn't we all have automatic links at the end of the email
  • .signature line that gets automatic general
  • bkuhn mentions having tried it but it didn't work well (only Orion gave)

• Should we be like the Mormons?
  • "Would you like to be contacted later from someone who will teach you about software freedom?"
