Porqué Bill Gates quiere hablar con Lula

El que quizás sea el mejor momento del World Social Forum de este año en Porto Alegre, Brasil: -- Manuel Castells and Gilberto Gil en una conversación sobre software libre, propiedad intelectual y el reequlibrio del poder en la era de la información.

Worldchanging reporta:

"The Catalan sociologist, Manuel Castells, and the [Brazilian] Minister of Culture, Gilberto Gil... will debate on the Digital Revolution: free software, freedom of knowledge and freedom of expression within the information society, promoted by the organization Free Software Brazil Project and by those who developed the concept of Creative Commons (CC). On the agenda of this event are the freedom of knowledge and the copyright issue.As we've said again and again, if the future's already here, but not well-distributed, redistributing the future is one of our main tasks. Debates like this make it clear that may be happening more quickly than we think."

Si alguien va a Porto Alegre que cuente cómo estuvo!
