RMS delivered the Silver Jubilee Lecture at Centre for Earth Science
Studies (CESS) entitled "Copyright and Freedom in Science". It was more
of a discussion than a lecture, and the discussion covered not just
copyright but went into the philosophy of Free Software and its economic
and business aspects. There were a number of young faces in the small
but enthusiastic crowd of around 200. And, interestingly, some of the
older members of the crowd also showed considerable interest in both the
copyright aspect and Free Software. The discussions were lively and went
on till we had to put a stop because of lack of time. There was
reasonably good media coverage, with two camera crews present along with
a few from the print media.
