Richard Stallman visits New Zealand: Visit one of his talks near you

, posted: 29-JUL-2008 11:31

For those who still haven't heard about this: Richard Stallman, founder of the Free Software Foundation, creator of the GPL and all around activist in all matters related to freedom is coming to New Zealand soon. There will be a series of talks in a variety of locations throughout the country. And apparently there are still a few time slots free! So, if you have an event or location you would like to host, and have RMS speak at that event...

Anyway, the New Zealand Open Source Society is reporting about it, and the current - still evolving - schedule can be viewed here (maintained by Simon Bridge).
