I repeat -- what does this have to do with "knowledge" per se.

What does this have to do with FOSS? People should use standard
formats and open protocols. Period.

Again, free software and open content are not interchangeable terms.

> 4. towards open content: creativecommons.org and similar initiatives:
> 5. authoring and contributing to open content:
> 6. free education content: why education content must be free,

These are more in line with "Knowledge shall set you free"

Workshops on the following:
* How to setup and administer a wiki with free software (LAMP stack)
and non-free software (Windows alternatives)
* Copyright issues surrounding free content. How free is free? What
rights does "free" give you? Where would one want to draw the line?
Issues are fair use and copyright.
* Workshop on RTI. Case studies of how it was used effectively.
Discussion on how a platform to share information obtained through RTI
can empower a lot of people out there. Task force to take this develop
and maintain this platform.
