	Eben Moglen Speech - Harvard - 2004
		Moglen: The 21st century political economy is different from the past economic history of the human beings because the economy is full of goods that have zero marginal cost.
		Moglen: Sure, it would be a very good idea, and if you watch and see what happens in the 21st century you'll see more and more manufacturers deciding to do precisely that, because of the value of empowered user innovation, which will drive down their costs of making new and better products all the time.
		Moglen: I will say a little bit now, and in the interests of time also say that you can find in the Net where I put stuff which is at http://moglen.law.columbia.edu a paper called “Freeing the Mind”, which addresses this question, I hope comprehensively, or at least a little bit.

	Free software's white knight \| Tech News on ZDNet
		Moglen: One aspect is the representation of free software projects that are in wide commercial use, so we need to be particularly sure about their legal situation.
		Moglen: There are a fairly large number of reports to the FSF every year about people who are not abiding by the terms of the GPL.
		Moglen: The reason why our plans for freedom work better than other peoples' is that they include a sequence of activities--proof of concept, running code and the solicitation of partnership.

	Eben Moglen - SCO v. IBM (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Eben Moglen: Well, in all the cases that we have so far seen where SCO has claimed that code from versions of Unix had made its way into the Linux program, it has made two kinds of errors.
		Eben Moglen: Well, the first thing we have to say is that the difference between this and the O. Simpson case is that in the O. Simpson case there were two dead people and that was an absolute fact.
		Eben Moglen: Though I also see that the Royal Bank of Canada, which has invested $50 million in SCO, announced earlier this week that it was rewriting its investment deal to provide itself with powers of veto over lawyer-compensation agreements.

	Moglen: Linux Trademark Needs to be Policed
		Eben Moglen, who is also general counsel for the Free Software Foundation and a law professor at Columbia University, was commenting on the recent issue of whether Linux companies and projects should be
		From Moglen's point of view, the efforts of the LMI to protect the Linux Trademark (notably in Australia lately) are not necessarily something that should be applauded or booed.
		Moglen explained that Trademark holders need to demonstrate their continuing efforts to "police the mark." Otherwise they risk losing legal standing to bring a claim regarding a particular misuse of the mark, or near substitutes for the mark, which could cause them harm.

	LWN: Eben Moglen's linux.conf.au keynote
		Moglen can take an absolutely uncompromising approach to software freedom just as well as, say, Richard Stallman, but he can deliver the message in a way that is vital and effective for a far wider audience.
		Eben, however, is also pleased by the fact that, over the last decade or so, he has not had to take the GPL to court.
		Eben is so careful about what he says, and how he says it, that any gloss is necessarily approximate.

	NewsForge \| Eben Moglen on Microsoft's Caller ID Patent License
		Eben Moglen -- professor of law at Columbia Law School and General Counsel for the Free Software Foundation -- said this morning that Microsoft's new spam-thwarting plan, dubbed Caller ID for E-mail, appears to be encumbered with unclear and unnecessary patent license claims.
		Professor Moglen contacted NewsForge later today and said that -- based on other text he was being shown from the license -- it may prohibit GPL'd implementation.
		It's not the advertising clause, but the "deemed accepted." Under section 7 of the GPL, "conditions imposed" on the putative licensor that prevent him from passing to all others the freedoms conveyed by GPL preclude his distribution under GPL.

	FSF - SCO Scuttles Sense, Claiming GPL Invalidity
		Now that the tide has turned, and SCO is facing the dissolution of its legal position, claiming to "enforce its intellectual property rights" while actually massively infringing the rights of others, the company and its lawyers have jettisoned even the appearance of legal responsibility.
		Far from marking the beginning of a significant threat to the vitality of the GPL, the day SCO scuttled sense altogether confirmed the strength of the GPL, and its importance in protecting freedom.

		In short according to Mogden GPL is based on the right of the author "The copyright holder is legally empowered to exclude all others from copying, distributing, and making derivative works.".

	Linux Today - IBM, Industry Respond to New SCO Threats
		Eben Moglen, professor of law at Columbia University and general counsel to the Free Software Foundation (FSF), though says there is absolutely no reason for anyone to buy SCO's license.
		Moglen, while respecting Boies' ability as a lawyer, finds it hard to see how this could be the case and that, in any case, he doesn't see why any corporate customer should pay SCO for a UnixWare license to continue to use Linux.
		Moglen thinks that "SCO is simply trying to scare people about using free software by making irresponsible comments." He notes that, until recently, SCO itself was distributing the code they now claim violated their own copyrights.

		This is usually regarded as a positive outcome, associated with enormous welfare increases of which capitalism celebrates at every opportunity everywhere all the time in the hope that the few defects that capitalism may possess will be less prominently visible once that enormous benefit is carefully observed.

		There are a bunch of other smaller changes, and Eben is going to be going through the whole license, explaining them step by step.
		It's been a little lonely, and a little too secret, for the last several months, I like better the public practice of law, and it's a pleasure now to be in a position to talk about the work we have been doing.

		And he should know: this hacker lawyer has for the past 12 years been official guardian of the GPL, and is overseeing the important process of crafting version 3 of what amounts to a constitution for the world of free software.
		But Moglen emphasises that the principal reason embedded devices needed to be addressed was that they will have profound implications for users' rights - an issue at the heart of the licence.
		As Moglen points out: "What they want is a very robust, highly debugged, completely stable, omni-competent, zero dollars per unit software platform for agile manufacture of devices in the future." Only one meets all those requirements: GNU/Linux.

		Moglen makes a very lucid explanation of why the apparently-more-free BSD license is less valuable to people who believe in freedom.

	PUNKCAST#964 Eben Moglen - Jefferson Market Library NYC - May 3 2006
		The Metropolitan NY Chapter of the Internet Society continued its popular series of seminars at the Jefferson Market library in Greenwich Village with a session with Eben Moglen, a Columbia U. law professor better known as the general counsel of Richard Stallman's Free Software Foundation.
		Moglen argues convincingly that natural law, moral humanism, and basic economics, all together imply the eventual victory of the free (as in freedom) software tortoise over the scheming corporate oligapolistic hare, and is very entertaining as he does it.
		Hear Eben Moglen on the same themes in May 2002 on PUNKCAST#156.
