[dundee] How well do you know the GPL

[Chairman The Software Society]

With the recent conversation this week about the GPL it has been suggested, by me in this case, that it would be useful to have a talk on open source licenses, their key differences and some pointers for people planning to release their own code.

So I'm putting out the call: is there anyone in our group who feels they would like to step up to the plate? There's no need to be a lawyer, but someone who can explain it simply is always appreciated.

If you think this is something you would like to do then drop me a line and we can get the details sorted out - chairman at thesoftwaresociety.org.uk

On a related point, if there are any talks people would like to hear then why not put them forward in our new mailbox:

whataboutthis at thesoftwaresociety.org.uk

(don't worry, suggesting an idea doesn't mean we'll make you do the talk!) as an aside, if there is a talk you feel you could give then drop us your idea as well - new talks (and speakers) are always welcome.

And as always...
  If you have been, thanks for reading
