Dear doctoral candidates,
we are forwarding you this interesting announcement from your doctoral representatives!
"Richard Stallman will be visiting TUM on October 21, 2025. He will be giving a talk on "Free/Libre software and freedom in the digital society". The talk will be in Rudolf-Diesel Hörsaal (MW2001) on TUM Campus Garching at 18:00. The talk is not technical and therefore suited for any audience.
More information is available at https://go.tum.de/783520 .
The talk is open to the public and attendance is free. Registration is not required.
Dr. Richard Stallman launched the free software movement in 1983 and started the development of the GNU operating system (see www.gnu.org) in 1984. GNU is free software: everyone has the freedom to copy it and redistribute it, with or without changes. The GNU/Linux system, basically the GNU operating system with Linux as the kernel, is used on tens of millions of computers today. Stallman has received the ACM Grace Hopper Award and the ACM Software and Systems Award, a MacArthur Foundation fellowship, the Electronic Frontier Foundation's Pioneer Award, and the the Takeda Award for Social/Economic Betterment, as well as many doctorates honoris causa, and has been inducted into the Internet Hall of Fame."
