Sharmaji,

Yes, Anshul (IIRC), having come here to hear RMS speak, too, had given a pretty good account of the proceedings on our list and I felt I couldn't improve upon it. AFAIK, there are, unfortunately, no video recordings of the speech, RMS having made a pre-condition to this effect.
Hello Sir,
        there was somebody who captured the whole speech on his handycam.

Thanking you,
prosun




Having been there, I came away with the impression that, while we all have more or less an idea of his views and know what to expect, it is his manner of putting it that is new and sometimes remarkable. He can be quite a showman when he pleases. For instance, this time, towards the end of his speech, he got up, put on a black surplice and a halo fashioned out of an old computer disk and called himself "St Ignucius of the Church of Emacs" and set out to baptize the audience into it!

Regards,
- Manas Laha
