==Minutes== | |||
First up, of the 18 members register here, only 9 turned up. | |||
We discussed a host of things. | |||
*Why a third version of GPL is needed. | |||
*How the GPLv3 will enable us (The Free Software Community) to stop deals like the Novell-Microsoft ones. | |||
*Saw a video of Eben Moglen speaking on the Microsoft-Novell deal. | |||
*The importance of GPLv3 in Embedded Systems. | |||
*Briefly talked about the [[Campaign_to_promote_free_software_in_Karnataka]], going to our schools and persuading them to switch to Free Software. | |||
*Decided that the BMSLUG has done enough of talking and that we'll do some projects on GNU in our holidays in July. | |||
