+#### Free software, free hardware, and other things
+
+Richard Stallman
+
+RoomTBA
+
+Preceded by a welcome address from John Sullivan, FSF executive
+director.
+
+#### Federation and GNU
+
+[Christopher Webber][webber]
+
+[webber]: http://dustycloud.org
+
+Room 32-123
+
+The effort to re-decentralize the web has been under way for a number
+of years, but what's really happening under the hood? Various projects
+like Diaspora, GNU social, [GNU MediaGoblin][gmg-home], Friendica Red, and Pump.IO
+all exist, but not all these projects can talk to each other. How can
+we fix that? A demo of PyPump will be given, as well as a rundown on
+the progress of the W3C Social Working Group.

+#### Dr. Hyde and Mr. Jekyll: advocating for free software in nonfree academic contexts
+
+ginger coons
+
+Room 32-141
+
+What if the classic horror trope of the good doctor who becomes a
+monster at night were reversed? Instead of the good Dr. Jekyll
+transforming into the rampaging Mr. Hyde, advocates of free who work
+in nonfree environments can feel as if they only get to put on their
+altruistic persona at night. For academics advocating free software
+and free culture in particular, libre ethics are often at odds with
+both administrative structures and expected teaching outcomes. This
+session explores the struggles of advocating free in both research and
+teaching.
+
+#### TAFTA, CETA, TISA: traps and threats to Free Software Everywhere
+
+[Marianne Corvellec][corvellec], [Jonathan Le Lous][lous]
+
+Room 32-155
+
+TAFTA, CETA, and TISA are far-reaching trade agreements posing major
+threats to online freedom and creating legal uncertainty for all
+Internet players. They set forth an ever stronger protection of
+copyright and patents. They 'recycle' the most toxic parts of ACTA,
+the anti-counterfeiting trade agreement which was rejected
+in 2012. The presentation focuses on the software aspects of TAFTA,
+CETA, TISA. We will call for action against these global treaty
+projects and offer alternative proposals, which favour Free Software
+Everywhere.

+#### Let's encrypt!
+
+Seth Schoen
+
+Room 32-123
+
+This year a robotic certificate authority will start issuing
+publicly-trusted certificates, at no charge, by the millions. Called
+Let's Encrypt, this CA is an initiative of several organizations. Our
+free software and protocol will let sysadmins run a single command to
+turn on HTTPS on their servers in about a minute, helping eliminate
+obstacles to activating encryption for every Web server. I'll describe
+how it all works and give a demo. We need lots of testing and
+integration help!
+
+#### Attribution revolution -- turning copyright upside-down
+
+Jonas Öberg
+
+Room 32-141
+
+Reusing works licensed under free licenses seems pretty simple, but it
+can often be quite time consuming. One image or a few lines of source
+code might be okay, but keeping track of the license and attribution
+of a thousand different pieces, or when quoting from massive data sets
+such as Wikipedia? Whoah! Don’t we have computers to do that for us!?
+We do, but there’s no widespread support for including licensing or
+author information when sharing or reusing digital works. This session
+will discuss how this should work in a free knowledge environment, and
+could it be that many problems regarding copyright and "piracy" in our
+digital society could be solved with free software?
+
+In order to relate effectively to the digital works we see online,
+attribution (who made or built something) matters. Proper attribution
+is the start of being able to explore digital works online in their
+right context. This talk will focus on the philosophical background of
+why attribution matters, the benefits that free software can bring to
+the way we work with pieces of art (lolcats and Shakespeare alike),
+and where we're heading in the future.
+
+
+#### Access without empowerment
+
+Benjamin Mako Hill
+
+Room 32-123
+
+The free software movement has twin goals: promoting access to
+software through users' freedom to share, and empowering users by
+giving them control over their technology. For all our movement's
+success, we have been much more successful at the former. I will use
+data from free software and from several related movements to explain
+why promoting empowerment is systematically more difficult than
+promoting access and I will explore how our movement might address the
+second challenge in the future.
+
+#### Fork and ignore: fighting a GPL violation by coding instead
+
+Bradley Kuhn
+
+Room 32-123
+
+Typically, GPL enforcement activity involves copyright infringement
+actions which compel license violators to correct errors in their GPL
+compliance, defending the policy goals of the GPL: the rights of
+developers and users to copy, share, modify and redistribute.
+
+While traditional enforcement is often undeniably necessary for
+embedded electronics products, novel approaches to GPL violations are
+often possible and even superior for more traditional software
+distributions.
+
+Recently, Software Freedom Conservancy engaged in an enforcement
+action whereby, rather than fight the violator in court, we instead
+provided resources and assistance to a vetted GPL-compliant fork of a
+violating codebase.
+
+This talk discusses which scenarios make this remedy optimal and the
+lessons learned. The talk includes some licensing and technical
+content about vetting the licensing information of codebases.
+
+#### Who did this? Just wait until your father gets home
+
+Ken Starks
+
+Room 32-141
+
+What's going on in here? Computer parts laying all over the
+place... screws and ribbon cables scattered cross heaven's half
+acre. And who left this power supply in the refrigerator? Is that your
+dad's new impact drive? Don't you dare let me get up in the middle of
+the night and step on that motherboard in my bare feet. Just what in
+the name of Michael Dell is going on here?
