A bit unfair to Stephen Fry maybe but I know what you mean about preaching to the converted. Clever metaphors sound brilliant to the in crowd but do they really explain what’s going on ?
I found the rest of it interesting but that’s because I have some knowledge of development issues. What about some case examples of Ubuntu usage? Interviews ? How do schools use it ? Businesses ? Artists ?
Hi,
The link to the Free Culture Showcase should be
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuFreeCultureShowcase
it currently links here.
Also, why is Laura said to be filling in? She’s surely
one of the main presenters now.
Thanks,
Alan says: Thanks, link fixed. Laura tends to only appear on the show if one of us isn’t available. This is nothing to do with the fatc that we don’t have enough microphones or ports on the mixer to have everyone in at once. Honest.
