IEEE Tribute to Richard Stallman, Michael Tiemann, Linus Torvalds, Larry Augustin, Eric S. Raymond, Bruce Perens, Frank Hecker and Brian Behlendorf (Revolution OS Showing)
This "Friday MOVIE Nights" at IEEE has this "Tech Documentary", which is due to start in 20 minutes.
For those who do not know, RMS received much recognition, not only from the Internet Hall of Fame but many others.
From IEEE (20 years ago): "Richard Stallman is the founder of the GNU Project, launched in 1984 to develop the free software operating system GNU. The name ``GNU'' is a recursive acronym for ``GNU's Not Unix''. He is also the principal author of the GNU Compiler Collection, a portable optimizing compiler which was designed to support diverse architectures and multiple languages. The compiler now supports over 30 different architectures and 7 programming languages. Stallman also wrote the GNU symbolic debugger (gdb), GNU Emacs, and various other programs for the GNU operating system." Date of Conference: 24-27 September 2006.
So much has happened in the past two (exactly 2) decades. Wikileaks turns 20 in just over a week, so it was set up and launched around the same time of the above conference. █
