Welcome to life at 10,000,000,000 bits per second! India is establishing a National Knowledge Network, with a backbone in multiples of Gbps. The initial phase would be implemented in the next few weeks, with JNU being connected at 1Gbps. While the technical details of the project have been put in place, it is of importance to look at content and applications, and the rights behind these.
We are honoured that Richard Stallman, of the Free Software Foundation would deliver a talk on
"Copyright v/s community in the age of computer networks"
at the School of Life Sciences Auditorium, Jawaharlal Nehru University
TIme: 6:00 pm Date; Friday, 19th December, 2008
R.S. Mani, a Senior Technical Director with the National Informatics Center would introduce the National Knowledge Network prior to the talk.
Regards, Andrew
