| schestowitz | I no longer work as a journalist, I am now a computer science researcher in the 15th highest-rank department in the world. I still maintain a passion for Free software and follow your admirable work. I also encourage other people to use and to share Free software. | Apr 23 08:39 |
| schestowitz | My colleagues/cohosts and I started a weekly/bi-weekly technology show in November last year -- a show which focuses on GNU/Linux and covers issues like copyrights and patents as a threat to Free software. The show adopts SIP, which is the free protocol for VoIP exchanges, and we were wondering if you would be willing to talk with us on one of the future shows or just a segment of it. Our episodes get downloaded by thousands | Apr 23 08:39 |
| schestowitz | of people every week and many in the audience are like-minded people who wish to study the threats to freedom in a digital age. It helps them address these threats along with people like yourself. | Apr 23 08:39 |
| schestowitz | If doing an audio interview is not possible, would you be willing to do an interview over E-mail? I am eager to eager your response and respect it entirely, whatever it may be. | Apr 23 08:39 |
