It seems I am to be a featured speaker (http://www.floscaribbean.org/speakers.html) at this year's "Free Libre and Open Source" Caribbean Conference (http://www.floscaribbean.org), to be held at the Auditorium of the Central Bank of Trinidad and Tobago, Port of Spain, Trinidad, on the 26th and 27th of June this year.
This looks like it will be a very interesting free software event. When I am not on the beach, I will be speaking about Free Software in government, and about GNU Alexandria, which is a spinoff of GNU Bayonne that focuses on enabling e-government services for the visually impaired.

PCLinuxOnline has responded to the SCO lawsuit against IBM by initiating a community boycott of the company and its products. They have set up fora to collect evidence to use in the courtroom, and also to discuss possible community responses. See their front page for details.

In addition to speaking about free software adoption in the public sector, a new package, GNU Alexandria, will be introduced for public discussion.

This issue covers more useful Free Software - Ninvaders, GNOME-Annotate, RULE - but also features an extensive editorial on the dangers that Free Software faces with new laws that are planned / being talked about, and a call for action people should answer!
It is, as always, available at brave-gnu-world.org

With the release of DotGNU Portable .NET 0.4.8, I'll take a brief moment to ingratiate myself and answer this question: why should you care?
