Your Questions

Software Freedom Law Show episode 0x0F

June 9, 2009

In this episode, Karen and Bradley take questions that listeners have emailed and dented to them over the past few months.

Running time: 00:46:01.

Bradley referred to David Letterman's old Viewer Mail Theme. The Letterman FAQ has lyrics to a Viewer Mail Song, but it's not the one that Bradley remembers. Bradley remembers one that Dave called a “nee-na-nee-nee” song that had only the words It's Viewer Mail Time repeated over and over. It was probably from the late 1980s on the old NBC show.
Bradley mentioned that his old FSF speeches talk about his time as a proprietary software developer and why he vowed never to do it again. (08:49)
Bradley mentioned that he and Eric (one of the listeners who sent in a question) are fans of the show, Pushing Daisies. (09:40)
Bradley mentioned that the Nautilus was originally written by a company called Eazel that failed during the dot.com era. (17:04)

Bradley said their last segment was like the Argument Monty Python Sketch. Karen says that it isn't. (24:30)
Karen mentions that SFLC's Compliance Guide talks in details about how to do source provisions under GPLv2 and GPLv3. (27:32)
Bradley's favorite license is the Affero GPL. (28:26)
Christian asked about the Creative Commons licenses. (33:00)
At 35:44, you can hear the beginnings of people making coffee in the kitchen that is mentioned at the end of the show.
