In his guest lecture on Monday, 10.01.22, starting at 6 pm, Dr. Lucas Lasota will give us a short introduction to the law of free software licences. Are you wondering what "copyleft" actually means and how free software or FLOSS and open source software differ from each other legally? Or do you simply want to learn more about free software in general? In any case, we look forward to your participation in the lecture and our subsequent discussion. The talk and discussion will be held in English, online via BigBlueButton. Prior knowledge is not required.
