Just for your reference;
FSFE's Freedom Task Force (FTF) is delivering licensing courses now. These courses are agreed for delivering in Sweden and Switzerland with Internet Academy and Digicomp respectively, with further courses being negotiated with partner organisations in Germany and The Netherlands.
I'd like to talk about using a simple format like the FTF course to also teach people about Certified Open in the future. Perhaps we could look at delivery in Brussels, Zurich and London.
I have attached a copy of the FTF licensing course outline.
Regards
Shane
Looks good, both in its current format, and as a template for CO. Who is it currently targeted at?

"The course is primarily for project managers and those in coordinative positions, but will also be of benefit to developers and technicians who wish to become more knowledgeable regarding code distribution options."
It's not deep enough for serious legal eagles, though one of the people taking the course on Monday is a German lawyer. It's enough to help get people contextualised in licensing and potential use of Free Software in their product deployment.
