Jeremiah, Joseph, I'm just catching up on this thread, thanks for the responses. Jeremiah, I read the materials at the link you provided re the FSF and SFC discussion with Canonical, which seemed to

I will try to do it next Monday, but not totally sure, I have a meeting with high exec in my company at 11 PDT and need to be ready, since I do the presentation. I am allowed to speak officially

Michel, welcome to the team, and thank you for the input! Are you able to join the call on Monday? Really constructive feedback that would be good to discuss. BTW I should note that all participants

Hi – For those who missed the call last week, there was a suggestion to meet over lunch at LinuxCon NA in Seattle. We have the Capitol Hill room reserved from 12-2:20pm on Mon, 8/17 and looking
