Hi all!

The Tel Aviv Linux club will meet this Sunday on 2-November-2009 on 18:00 to 
hear Ori Idan's "What is Free and Open Source Software?". The talk 
will take place in the Holcblat ("הולצבלט" in Hebrew), hall no. 007 in the 
main corridor of the Exact Sciences building in Tel Aviv University.

Abstract:

<<<<<<<<<
In the next meeting, which will take place two weeks later (Sunday, the 22nd 
of November, 2009), Ori Idan will talk about what actually are free software 
and open-source: what are the guiding principles behind free software, why is 
it good, important, and helpful for users (but also for developers), and also 
why it doesn't contradict any Capitalistic principles. Moreover, in this 
meeting, we will explore Linux as a 100% open source operating system, and 
some things that its open-source nature enables.
>>>>>>>>>
