At the recently held Red Hat Summit in Nashville, Eben Moglen, General Counsel for the Free Software Foundation, and Chairman of Software Freedom Law Center spoke about software patents. Cory Doctorow, noted science fiction writer, spoke about Digital Rights Management and copyrights. Both these speeches were highly appreciated by the audience. The videos of the same are now at:

Apart from the videos, there is a whole bunch of news, blogs etc. From the Gnu/Linux Users Group perspective, what may be most relevant are the technical presentations archived at:
