Dear all
My apologies for being quite. I was at a conference in The Netherlands,
and then travelling back to Japan via Ireland.
I reviewed the call for participants and the larger conference proposal
overview documents on-line. Both are shaping up nicely.
If there are any specific items where I can help out, just let me know.
If you would like to have a reserve talk in case it is required for the
schedule, I'm available with:
'Practical Economic Engagement with Free and Open Source Software'
The talk covers the following topics:
- How Free and Open Source Software works
- How to categorize Free and Open Source Software
- How to use Free and Open Source Software for economic gain
- How to add Free and Open Source Software to commercial relationships
- How to manage commercial/non-commercial cooperation
- How to build international cooperation
- How to resolve problems when they occur
