Yes, BCS's OSSG is very funny. So far I've seen big publicity for
speeches by Microsoft, Sun and even DRM-rootkitters Sony, and for
debates on whether free software is a useful idea, but only a little
publicity and only for tech talks about free software itself. Why
isn't OSSG hosting non-tech speakers from free software and debates on
how to strengthen it more?
