Free Software and Open Source Symposium
Introduction
Upon observing, analyzing and assessing the presentations to which I appreciatively attended at the Free Software and Open Source Symposium, I will focus, illustrate, and describe my findings on two speakers and their associated presentations. Seneca College's 7th annual Free Software and Open Source Symposium, captured the essence of the open source spirit by bringing in a vast assortment of speakers, long and diverse; representing the best of the web, the open source desktop, open source business/law, and the quintessential open source spirit. Professors, students, employees, administrations, and community leaders all brought together to discuss the essence of the open source world.
