Open Source Software in an Academic Environment

For long I’ve been an evangelist of OSS in the University of Aveiro. First through my involvement in the foundation of GLUA and more recently through CodeUA. In the last 7 years I’ve participated in several EU projects in which I’ve always promoted the use of OSS and the release of code developed in the projects through OSS licenses.

Today I was able to go a step further, since I was invited to do be part of a discussion panel at the Future Networks 6th FP7 Concertation Plenary Meeting where the subject was Open Source & Research. In this panel I was representing the Academic view of OSS. The presentation is available at:
