Linux.Net.CN: Richard Stallman in China

By

By Xiong Jiang

Beijing, October 29, 1999. Invited by TurboLinux, Richard M.
Stallman, the creator of Free Software Foundation, made a two-hour
keynote introducing GNU and free software on the opening ceremony
of Tsinghua GNU/Linux R&D center, which is cofounded by
Tsinghua University and TurboLinux.

I was lucky to be able to personally attend and take some photos
(which are not so clear because of the long distance). However, I
still hope it will bring you enjoyment. 🙂

Full report
in English and Chinese
are available.
