The speaker lineup at POSSCON is world-class.
POSSCON turned out to be a great event. Big thanks to Jeffrey Hammond, Lee Congdon, Mark Anzani and Deb Bryant for a great AM of panel discussion
Thanks to Matt Asay for moderating our panel at POSSCON. Well worth the trip to South Carolina. Great regional event.
The synergy between developers, business people, and teachers makes POSSCON pretty unique, I haven't really seen this anywhere else.
It was very nicely run and I think you did a bang-up job. You should all be proud of what you did.
This is like nothing you've ever seen before. You can look at the pictures, you can watch the videos... but just like a concert, you have to be there.

Despite claims to the contrary, in the Open Source world, there is no true single license and no true single community. Instead, there is a small subset of both license and community types that pretty much all open source projects are based on, depending on the needs and wants of both the developer and the end-user ecosystem.
Jim will distill down the various licenses and communities down to their core components, explain the differences between them, describe their plusses and minuses, and help figure out which license and community type is most appropriate for you and your code.
