[Nottingham] [Talk] *Tomorrow* 7:30pm Thursday 17/11/2016: GNU Freedom and Just For Fun!

[Martin]

Folks,

Very apt and timely, hot news just now in on The Register:

Microsoft just got its Linux Foundation platinum card, becomes top level
member
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/11/16/microsoft_joins_linux_foundation_as_platinum_member/


Phew!

One apt quote is:

“If Microsoft ever does applications for Linux it means I’ve won.”
– Linus


... Although I'm sure there will be more twists and turns yet...

All for comment *Tomorrow* Thursday 17/11/2016.


Cheers,
Martin
