DebSIG: Free Media, but not Free Beer (unfortunately)

At DebSIG this wednesday (James Squire Brewhouse, Sydney) we're discussing what Free Software can do for Free Media. I'll throw some ideas around for a little while and then we can have some fun:

Free Media lets people build on forms of expression -- to make music, movies, pictures and knitting patterns by sharing source material. It's natural that Free Software should support the production of Free Media. More so, we know the ins and outs of working together globally and we've built up tools and community structures to support that. It's an awesome new world. What can we do, as Free Software developers and distributors, to help Free Media flourish, and why does it matter?

Come along, chit-chat and get "ratfaced".

Also this week:

• Open Source Business Methods forum on Tuesday (let's happy Annodex that)
• Paul Fenwick and Perlmongers on Thursday (also at the JSBH)
