Show Notes

Segment 0 (00:31)

• 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)

Segment 1 (24:22)

• 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.
