May 6, 2001–Kronberg In view of the recent
attack of Microsoft to the Open Source Software movement, the
organizers of Linux@work Europe, LogOn Technology Transfer, decided
to change the original title of the two panel discussions “Linux in
the Public Administration” to be held at Linux@work Oslo, May 9 and
Stockholm, May 10 to:
“Does Open Source Software Threaten Intellectual Property?”
The panels with new focus will address the following
questions:
- Does Open Source Software Threaten Intellectual Property?
- What is the difference between the GPL and Microsoft Shared
Source strategy? - Does Open Source creates security risks?

Panelists will include:
Robert J Chassel, Founding Director of the Free Software
Foundation, and representatives from Borland, Compaq, Datarespons,
