#6Monumental moment in both free software and Microsoft’s history. A decade ago he was probably the most persona non grata.

> Mostly standard talk. Importance of free software, GPL v3, GNU vs Linux. However, he had a list of "small requests": make Github push users to better software license hygiene, make hardware manufacturers to publish their hardware specs, make it easier to workaround Secure Boot.
