Summary: The above LibrePlanet talk is a physical presence/panel talk* about "[f]inding a job while caring about free software"; it was uploaded by the FSF** 8 hours ago; From the official page: "A panel of people who care about software freedom, and have have somewhat recently gone through a job search. They will discuss and share their experience, offer some advice, and involve the audience. There is a vast array of ways to advance free software while looking after your finances, but in this talk, our focus will be on finding employment doing technical work and issues encountered there. For example: How much conflict with free software values do you accept in a company and for what price? What about ethical differences between your individual work vs the employer's overall business model?"

this channel too, in case MediaGoblin is down. The FSF seriously under-provisioned MediaGoblin for these new videos. Now the site goes up and down (mostly down) and it makes MediaGoblin look bad.
