We've barely had time to unpack our suitcases, but we did manage to bring back a few party favors from this month's Red Hat Summit. Watch the keynote speeches, get updates on our announcements, and take a taste of Music City, open source style.
Everyone's favorite sci-fi author and EFF Fellow kills the Summit crowd with his wryly precise take on proprietary software, DMCA, privacy, evolution, and piracy. Yar, matey.
This law professor from Columbia and legal counsel for the GPLv3 works hard to keep freedom safe. When he's not teaching law students, he's directing the Software Freedom Law Center, or educating the rest of us. Get your notebooks out. Class is in session.
Red Hat's Chairman, CEO, and President welcomes everyone to the Summit, and sets the stage with frank discussion about open document format, patent legislation, and the value of transparency and truth. Bonus footage includes info on Red Hat's newest projects: 108, Mugshot, and One Laptop per Child.

Country music isn't the only thing we listened to in Nashville. Cory Doctorow and Eben Moglen both had something to say about copyright protection and the state of the music industry. Music fans, unite.
One of the advantages of open source software is the speed at which flaws are found and fixed. How does that happen? What should you do if you find a bug? The maintainer of Red Hat's bug tracking system explains all.
Community Relations Manager Greg DeKoenigsberg sits down for a chat with open source music man Brad Turcotte. They talk about his songs, his association with Magnatune, how he's collaborating with others on the web, and why releasing the source of his music is such a good thing.
