Over the four days meeting, organized by LAit (Lazio Technological Innovation) I would recommend free software and open source enthusiasts to save the following two dates:
8th of June, 8 pm: Free Software between Ethics and Business, open issues and success stories – Auditorium Ara Pacis, moderated by Arturo Di Corinto.
9th of June, 10 am: Commercial Open Source Software (Panel) – Auditorium Ara Pacis, moderated by Roberto Galoppini. Bruce Perens, SourceLabs Vice President and Author of the Open Source Definition, will introduce the debate. Among panel participants Carlo Daffara (CIRS), Gabriele Ruffatti (Engineering), Pier Paolo Boccadamo (Microsoft), and Franco Roman (Sun).
A Q&A session with the audience will follow, everyone is invited.
Roberto Galoppini, and 1 other are discussing.

Many thanks to Roberto for spreading the news on the event. I will be probably present some results from the OpenTTT matching model for open source software, and eventually to talk about business models; I would be happy if anyone would suggest additional topics of interest.

Hi Carlo,
I enjoyed your idea to talk about OpenTTT, is a pragmatic approach to open source.
About business models – that I believe is a pretty interesting subject – to not be theoretical I will ask panelists to talk just about their actual business models.
