Free Software (Foro Internacional de Software Livre, FISL7.0) hosted the
Second International Conference on GPLv3, which took place on April 21st
and 22nd in Porto Alegre, Brazil.

FSFLA coordinated the workshops, which began on the 21st when Alexandre
Oliva introduced Richard Stallman to the crowd that had overflowed the
main auditorium's capacity. In his presentation, RMS explained the
challenges of updating the license, and the main issues that the actual
draft aims to address.

explaining juridical details of the GPLv3 draft.

worldwide copyright license, featuring Thiago Tavares Nunes de Oliveira,

The second day of discussion on GPLv3 started on Saturday 22nd at 1:00pm
with a panel on DRM and software patents, with the participation of
David Turner from FSF, Beatriz Busaniche, Thiago Tavares Nunes de
Oliveira, Paul Madick and Pedro Rezende.

The next session took care of issues related to compatibility of GPLv3

Alexandre Oliva, Tania Leal, Don Armstrong y Simon Phipps.

The second day closed with a panel on adoption of the new license by
developers, which was held by Federico Heinz, Daniel Olivera,  Michael
Tiemann, Cesar Brod y Ciaran O'Riordan. 

Booth at FISL

For the first time, FSFLA shared a booth in a major event with two of
its sister organizations, FSF and FSFE. Members of the three
organizations wheathered together the four days of Latin America's
largest Free Software event, which was held this year at FIERGS.

FSFLA wants to thank very specially the participation and generous help
of the voluntaries who cooperated in the coordination of the booth,
especially Luiz Coelho, Eder Marques and Marcelo Santana. All of them
did a great job at the booth.

Events

On April 6th, FSFLA participated in a public manifestation against the
"Partners in Learning" program, an agreement between the Ministry of
Education of Argentina and Microsoft. A group of activists from several
Argentine user groups assisted to a presentation held in a hall of the
Ministry of Education, handing out leaflets rejecting educational
programs based on non-free software. "Our children deserve Free
Software" read the flier, which was handed to all attendees including
the Minister. FSFLA invites all activists in Latin America to carry out
similar actions of opposition to these training programs, which foster
the use of non-free software in our schools.

On Thursday, April 20th at 7:00pm, FSFLA held a session at FISL 7.0
introducing its work and goals. Alexandre Oliva, Beatriz Busaniche and
Federico Heinz spoke for FSFLA. We want to thank very specially the
participation in this session of Georg Greve, President of FSFE, and
Richard Stallman, President of FSF, who joined us in the panel.

Also within FISL, Fernanda Weiden and Beatiz Busaniche participated in a
session dedicated to Free Software's women, especially those from PSL
Women, LinuxChix, and Gnurias. Alexandre Oliva gave a talk on "The
liberating power of the second finger".

On Saturday, April 29th, Federico Heinz participated in an event i
Dublin, on invitation of the Irish Free Software Organisation (IFSO).
FSFLA's president spoke about two important issues: the use of Free
Software in the Public Administration, and in Education.

FSFLA will also participate in GNU/Linuxtag in Wiesbaden, Germany. From
May 3rd to 6th, Fernanda Weiden and Federico Heinz will share activities
with our sister organization, FSFE.
