New Richard Stallman Interview About Software Patents

Summary: ITNews has just published an interview where Richard Stallman speaks about software patents

YESTERDAY night we showed that ITNews unfairly accused Dr. Stallman of "crashing" an event (as in "Stallman crashes European Patent session"). Liz Tay has just posted a more polite article/headline which contains evidence of what the so-called 'crashing' was (in video form) and also the following interview with Stallman.

Thanks to ITNews for making the effort producing an Ogg version. Here is the remainder of their videos.







Techrights attempts to make everything available as Ogg and often it's a compromise in the sense that there are interesting videos that cannot be shared.
