Richard M. Stallman on the Free Software Movement and Patents
========================================================================
The Free Software movement highlights the issues regarding patents and
the generalization and use of the term Intellectual Property Rights. For
countries that are entering into global agreements such as WIPO, it is
now crucial to assess the implications and impacts of international
patent practises and policies, and to examine and assess the arguments
introduced by the Free Software movement.

School of Information Systems, Singapore Management University cordially
invites you to attend an open session featuring Richard M. Stallman,
