Copyright vs. Community
by Matt Lee published Apr 17, 2009 last modified Apr 27, 2009 11:57 AM — filed under:
Jadwisin, Poland. Sala Konferencyjna Nowa, Conference and Tourist Center http://www.owjadwisin.pl/eng.shtml , 05-140 SEROCK (+48 (22) 782 7508, +48 (22) 782 6541, <jadwisin@owjadwisin.pl>. The exact time and date of Richard Stallman's talk is yet to be determined. Copyright developed in the age of the printing press, and was designed to fit with the system of centralized copying imposed by the printing press. But the copyright system does not fit well with computer networks, and only draconian punishments can enforce it. The global corporations that profit from copyright are lobbying for draconian punishments, and to increase their copyright powers, while suppressing public access to technology. But if we seriously hope to serve the only legitimate purpose of copyright--to promote progress, for the benefit of the public--then we must make changes in the other direction. This speech will be part of the Konferencja Wikimedia Polska, 2009, which will be taking place from May 1st through May 3rd.

El Peligro de las Patentes de Software
by Matt Lee published Apr 17, 2009 last modified Apr 21, 2009 03:45 PM — filed under:
Vigo, Spain. Auditorio del Centro Cultural Caixanova, AV Policarpo Sanz nº13. Richard Stallman explicará como las patentes de software obstruyen el desarrollo de software. Las patentes de software son patentes que cubren las ideas del software. Ellas restringen el desarrollo del software, de modo que cada decisión del diseño trae el riesgo de conseguir ser demandado. Las patentes en otros campos restringen fábricas, pero las patentes del software restringen a cada usuario de computadora. La investigación económica demuestra que incluso retardan el progreso. La charla será gratis y accesible a todos. ¡Todos son bienvenidos! (cf. https://www.fsf.org/events/20090430vigo)

Copyright vs. Community
by Matt Lee published Mar 12, 2009 last modified Mar 12, 2009 01:42 PM — filed under:
Philadelphia, PA. Temple University, Kiva Auditorium, 13th and Montgomery, building 40 (Ritter Hall Annex) on the map at: http://www.temple.edu/maps/documents/TUMain_map.pdf The entrance is on the North side of Cecil B. Moore Ave., between 13th St. and Broad St. Copyright developed in the age of the printing press, and was designed to fit with the system of centralized copying imposed by the printing press. But the copyright system does not fit well with computer networks, and only draconian punishments can enforce it. The global corporations that profit from copyright are lobbying for draconian punishments, and to increase their copyright powers, while suppressing public access to technology. But if we seriously hope to serve the only legitimate purpose of copyright--to promote progress, for the benefit of the public--then we must make changes in the other direction.
