What do others think? > I > wouldn't approve giving a talk to Microsoft or similar companies. Why? They release code under free or open source licences, support mono and I don't see why we shouldnt let them buy a talk, when others can. (Think of a company who makes its profit from selling "intellectual property" with free software. Or companies which file enourmous amounts of patents, also on business logics. Why do we accept those but not Microsoft?) Of course, we can turn arbitary sponsor offers down, but the above is part of the reason why I rather select talks by content and a comitee. > Of course, this is as long as the Sponsor actually supports Debian.
