This color is very interesting.  It's It's more of that, you know, lucky craft clear water style. Oh god, he got it right there How's it going y'all welcome back to the channel? We have a bright and sunny day to dangle with I'm out here with my boy Andrew flair also known as the beaver slayer Or the the muskrat Maniolator, I don't know. I just made those names up, but uh, he's come down from his flooded Floodedness, he's basically Noah's Ark up there If y'all don't know who he is you can check out his channel right now and Check out some of the stuff he's been doing behind the scenes just being a good Samaritan up there Anyway, he's always good to fish with people that have good energy. So I'm fishing with him today. Um Perik's been out here as well. Uh, if you want to check out his van Uh, he gets upset when you call the van. It actually is van, but I just said I'm like, yo, you did I say in the oh, yeah, yeah, no, no, but um My idea isn't really to catch like that's my goal and I might just live out of the thing until I'm like 80 You know, yeah I already told the audience go check out your van video. Thank you. So that's there any other little tidbits they can check out over there Um, I just cooked some sausage. There's some big fish in here. I think you guys are going to film a banger All right. Well Flare here So those guys are going to be linked down below and today We are sponsored by mystery Taco box That's right me and flair are going to be dangling with the pro box today And hey, guess what you want to get signed up For these boxes get them shipped right to your house ready to dangle every month It's easy. I'm going to have a link listed down below Go and click it and guess what use the code mondo and you can get your first box for as low as five bucks five bucks Per sheet and there's a lot of good hard baits and stuff in there stuff that you're going to use a long time Uh keeping your tackle box keeping your mystery tackle box So, uh, that's video sponsored by them and we're going to go through some of that stuff. But first of all, let's talk about the conditions Why bam is the moon up there? No, it's not there sun's way up there But the full moon is in effect. Actually the moon is so bright. They're calling this a super moon a super What do they call it? Super red moon or super super blood moon?  They were moving up shallow and Well, today we're going to see if anything's different. We're going to see what's going on with this full moon water temperatures and all that It's close. I can smell it. Claire's going to get it popping right here Yeah with that man beard just doing it doing it strong While he's doing uh while he's getting it get us started here since he's already got his uh He's already got his danglers ready from from the box. I got to do the same.  You can see what's in it. You can see What the prices are and everything So we have a weston swim. We have a lucky craft lc 1.5 ssr I'm going to show you guys. I'm only going to show you how I'm breaking them out Now the weston swim That is an actual like glide bait. I would consider that And this is the lucky craft. I'm going to swim this over this grass out of here. I can already tell you Really small bill on that guy for super shallow and I guess what it's a raven red. You know where raven is That's where rt gibbons is from dag Rt out there in et we got a biospawn exo swim, which is probably one of my favorite baits ever from That I get in my boxes from mystery talcobox. I put these on chatter baits I use them on one of their other baits the flat the the uh flashbang Shimmer shad is a a drop shot style bait. They're hooking you up with some drop shot weights Some different drop shot weights. You got some cylinder style and some ball style. So we got ourselves a bio bait infused with fish oil Now I had another package of these earlier that I opened up and it Stanks, it's got some stank juice on it, but hey fish like a little stank juice and We have uh stickies wacky rig this hook on a weightless bait because the conditions Um, they've changed, you know, it was kind of windy this morning Perik was uh catching me was running around the banks. He was saying but now that it's slipped off We have a full moon these fish are probably gonna be locking down on some beds this afternoon next couple days Gonna be finicky Just got that good old fashioned spawn feeling it's about to happen This is going to be the juice with a weightless bait. I can tell you a delicious box for the month of march And the good thing about it is they do all the research. You don't have to go Manandering around Okay, I'm pretty sure I just heard An actual frog About to make our first cast here, but before we do You want to try putting this little red crank on I have a feeling this This might have Some play here I love throwing red lipless crank baits in the pre-spawn. I'm kind of in the tweener phase right now So this little square bill I mean it looks like a square bill. It is a square bill technically But it's probably gonna run more like a wakebait. I think it said runs like 1.5 feet max so fishing real grassy lakes Like we're out here today I've been fishing all over the place like different different sorts of lakes this month Really big lakes I fish rivers And today we're fishing a small lake, you know So I wanted to try to see How that is different if it's all the same from all these other places Is it warming up quicker than these other big lakes? Just don't really know but We're about to find out This little lucky craft crank it it is staying above the grass pretty nice We're entering into a It's like a flat right here or it's it's turning into a flat in the back And This thing doesn't go very deep So I'm holding the rod tip up to try to keep it high You honestly could probably throw some mono or braid on here and just swim it at the surface But it dives down just enough To kind of nick that grass where I'm at Where it goes down about two foot And then I can just you know, pop it out of there just like a regular lipless style crankbait, but this one floats back up So what I'm hoping is there's going to be Some bass that are like Way up on here You know really cruising the flats right now And I might just surprise one Making real long casts this this color is very interesting. It's not a like a bright red like in your face red It's it's more of that, you know lucky craft clear water style. Oh god. He got it right there He came up and got it right there. Did you guys see that? Oh my gosh. He freaking wham-bammed it Dude, it's a nice fish. Oh my gosh As we're talking about it. He came in freaking annihilated it Golly You've jokin me Golly That's this feels like some bill dance type stuff. He absolutely hammered it Come here, buddy Can you believe that? I mean it's going It is gone Oh my gosh That's a slurpy magoo right there. Whoo Look at that. That thing is going in his mouth. You know, it's kind of like a uh A translucent crawl.  All right, let him go real quick. See you Bass's blood coagulates with water not with air. So if they're bleeding Make sure to try to get them in the water as fast as you can. Here it is right there. Translucent crop, right? Little orange on the bottom clear sides Rayburn red in the center little black magic at the top And a short little bill. That's a that's a cool little color Oh, yeah, that was fun. I'd like to get all my buys like that Looking at water temps at 61.7 right now. Oh, yeah It is getting up there for sure I think that these fish are probably gonna start bedding up this afternoon And all we're doing right now is just kind of working moving baits Up in some shallow grass flats That was a bite. Got him? Oh, yeah. Flair's hooked. Nice fish, dude Yeah, we're hooked up. That's a big one. That's a good one. That's a hog. That's a hog Come on fish. Yeah, dude. That's a fatty. That is a pre-spawn fatty And Number two just came up and I didn't see that one, but he loaded up on it right in that grass All right, there we go.  Oh my gosh sideways in the mouth. That's how you know That's how you know folks Hit the oh boy. Can I oh there we go. Yeah, slung him. Look at that Y'all if you ever catch a bass And they're eating the crankbait like that, you know, you have a color situation figured out sideways head first gobble gherkin it Open mouth whammer jammed it hit the like button for new lingoes this year 2019 I need to get some t-shirts flowing with that. Let me know in the comments if you'd if you'd like some of that action Okay, let that guy go. I mean he just barely could fit in his mouth Active feeders. I wouldn't really expecting us to get on some active feeders here But no we're getting it going and get that let that guy go that little blood happening Oh Flares definitely got the the big fish so far a nice big fatty. I'm maybe getting the the more aggressive males On this on this selection, but I'm having fun. So I'm just going to keep it in my hand Might switch to that That glide bait the western glide bait if I'm not getting big fish. There's another one right there male just on this little point right here Wabam Wabam about the same size This uh, this little flat we're just in and it's got a point right here And I think they're setting up on it before they really move back there 61.9 we're about to hit that 62 degree mark y'all You know what's going to happen after that? Hmm Pretty fish pretty fish little spot on the tail like a red Okay Here we go. Whoo, baby. I thought it was going to be a soft plastic deal, but Turn it on with a hard bait. It's good stuff Up there in that hole maybe come on Oh gosh got him on the pause and that's a dandy got it on the pause. It's another male I paused it floated it and he gobble girked it head first My gosh This is cool. I thought that was going to be a big one. I'm thinking they're going to be big ones when they hit it because It's just it's like boom. It's like a texas rig y'all look at that Head first whammer jam mtb. Thank you for this new color selection Might have to look for some more crankbaits in this color. I like it a lot Yeah, what is it? Raymond crawl I almost didn't even have that fish hooked. It's just it wedged There's a wedge hook wedge lodge situation But what I did there you guys probably saw it. We'll back that up for a sec, but Let the crankbait float up like it's getting away. It's coming up top and then Grabbing it and there's a lot of males coming up pulling up shallow right now And starting to get aggressive Whoo y'all that is that is another sign flair just caught a Black crappie that thing would look awesome on the wall. Maybe at the new googan hq But hey, that's a sign that the bass are about to really start spawning the crappie spawn right beforehand and Honestly kind of won't break out the groppy rods right now and just start casting little Like little spinners up up there in the shallots, but we're gonna stick with bass I'm gonna resist the urge the swim This this guy's a slow sink Kind of just reel it. It does that side to side.  Let me get some of that. Yeah So maybe I'll just wait to throw that and It's when I count encounter that situation. Hopefully we do it's key to have some polarized sunglasses So you can see these patches nowhere to stop your bait Keep it rolling Bust it through twitch it All the things you do with the bait this thing is just Wobbling right through that stuff. It's really good. It's really good. I'm actually pretty excited about discovering this one Oh, oh, yeah, he got it hammered it hammered it About took it away from me. Oh, yeah fun times Yeah, beautiful little spotted tail another spotted tail sign of a good fishery I'm catching them they got those those dots on them like that Like a little spotted cow male fish nice healthy though not spawned out yet Yeah, I can hear the programming so we've literally been out here fishing Okay, now we're just taking a break so he can do his Guys go check it out. I don't know what to do right now. Are you doing it live? Yeah, eight minutes eight minutes I don't I'm uncomfortable the day the dangle hour. I don't like the the weather channel.  He's on the weather channel.  You should be like Yep, fishing's real good out here everyone that's wondering full moon right now. They're um, we're catching them on crank baits Oh, this is super encounter. This is not what I wanted. Anyway, I'm not going to record the interview He's got to get serious, but yeah, I cannot laugh during this is actually going to be on the weather channel So if you guys want to see it, you know, I'm sure he'll have something on it over there So anyway back to dangling. Yeah, there goes I see the leader Is it rolling? Yeah, you're good What is this? Oh, it's just a good bass look at him Oh gosh He's it's got it's got to be going Hey Sitting here waiting For flair to do his interviews You know And uh, just catching a mondo. That's all That was actually on your rod Well by rod, but your bait, which bait was that that weightless bait? Yeah the stick bait Oh Nice give it a sniff flair's got to get to his interview. He's filming me I love you. It will call you the weather channel fish That's what I go down That's what flair was doing first box but while i'm waiting, I thought I'd dangling What's that sunday monday tuesday wednesday thursday friday saturday It's about to go down. Oh got one got him on the crank, baby As soon as we got into a little bit of wind A little guy come up and crushed it So we started seeing cruisers in the calm area. We could literally see What's going on here these males come up here getting ready And we got into a little bit of wind Broke out that crank again. Wow Sorry about the uh, that was a go pro error there Crank bait was just stopped Then I stopped the camera Wabam Just as predicted right on the corner or this point with some grass And slappy magoo hit it there That fish, uh, didn't inhale it quite like the others, but it stopped it Like it mint it Look at that Sally that's a nice fish See you, baby The crawl crank Continues y'all Little afternoon bite. We don't have much time. We got to get back for another Guggen adventure this evening me and flair, but uh, we're going to go to our juice bank Which is called the juice bank. That's where you really dialed it in and see if we can get a few more bites I think we will especially because the wind's the same and everything I think at different parts of the lake, they're going to be really feeding other parts of the lake They're going to be betting and you've got a really they're not going to they're not going to eat So let's see if we can get a couple more fish over here in this bank flair Snack couple on this crawl crank I get three more casts Three more We're on a time crunch here. I got three more Three more in me I'm giving it the good cranks here pauses I'm giving her all she's got Oh Got him got him That's a big croppy. That's how I want to end my day, baby. Yes Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. Oh my gosh.  Croppy point. Dude Right here Dude That's even better than a bass I hope my glove dead going. I'd love to have me a big old sack of those puppies mmm Big old black croppy that is just awesome Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir Heck yeah, I didn't even need my other two casts. That's all I need right there, baby See baby day ender. I love it. Whoo, baby That is where I'm going to leave y'all today ending the dango on a great croppy And just a good old time out here with flair and if you want to go check out his channel He's linked down below and don't forget to check out your mystery tackle box subscription As low as five bucks with that code mondo. It's all down there for you guys The day we're filming this today is the first day of spring And I hope you guys are getting out there and going fishing and don't forget to watch those conditions watch the moon phase Look at the water temps if you can and if you don't have A graph if you're just fishing from the bank remember nights in the fifties three or four nights in the fifties Usually the that first trifecta in the spring is when the bass really start to move up get shallow And start uh making those beds.  Don't forget to subscribe right here So you don't miss the next angle and I'll see you guys later


Given that I know exactly who everyone is in the audience should I really do my talk or should we just communicate about let's have a conversation It feels rather strange.  This is not going to trip over that so so I was thinking about this because I'm in the south I grew up in Baltimore and It's kind of halfway between the south it was it's south of Mason Dixon south of the north It's south of Mason Dixon line, but it was on the side of the north during the war between the states so I People who've in the north think I grew up in the south and people in the south think I grew up in the north and that's always the way it's been for me and There is a certain southern sensibility that I see down here in New Orleans very similar to what it's like in Baltimore it has that kind of southern charm to it in a lot of ways and And my mother gave me some very probably southern advice that you should never ever discuss religion or politics and polite company You never do that You might guess you might have already guessed that I was rather rebellious young man and so I think a lot of things that are important are always mired in very complicated politics because Any time there is an important issue reasonable people will disagree and That's what really creates a lot of politics is when reasonable people have two different positions that are diametrically opposed This happens all the time. I Finally really started understand gpl compliance when I understood this that there are lots of people who reasonably disagree about the policy question of Gpl itself and Because of that disagreement a whole myriad of complex issues kind of fall right out of it and a lot of it's based in personal beliefs And I in nothing on this slide can I say is a provable scientific fact? It's what I believe is right through various experiences. I've had my life I believe everybody should have the right to copy share modify and redistribute all their software I believe it's a fundamental and alienable human right In other words, I believe that universal software freedom is something we should work to achieve It won't happen in my lifetime. It was a very depressing week when I finally realized at some point about 10 years ago That I would die in a world with proprietary software in it, and I probably will I'm almost certainly well But I believe that's what we should be working to sort it's towards I Think that licenses should be used to maximize that software freedom that I think it's the right thing to do to use The software license to try and get as much software freedom in the world as we can It's a belief that in other words means I believe in strong copy left And I think every developer does have a right to choose which free lot of software license they want You'll find an essay I wrote with Richard Stalman If 14 years ago now a long time ago In response to some things Tim O'Reilly said about how the right to proprietary software is for and I don't think people Should have a right to proprietary software But I do think people should probably have a right to choose which soft free software among all the OSI approved F7 approved licenses. They should be able to pick which one they like the best I don't have any problem with people picking permissive licenses. They're okay If you like a permissive license, that's free software. You should choose it I prefer a copy left license as you might guess and All of this is a set of moral beliefs. It's it's a moral code. It's not scientific fact People who disagree with me also have a separate moral code that disagrees with me But that's where sort of the the political disagreement begins. There's a different set of beliefs. I think that That's the fundamental issue that we disagree in the world about some moral beliefs regarding this issue of software freedom and I Think the debate of whether copy left makes sense whether we should have copy left in the world I don't think it's a debate that should be avoided. I think it's okay to have that debate On the other hand, I'm sick of having to constantly defend the idea of copy left. I find myself almost constantly in the last Three to five years having to defend why we should have copy left at all. I didn't used to have to do that There's always been the permissive versus copy left debates going back to I think I found the first one on Usenet in 1987 1986 somewhere around there, but I Think both types of projects have a right to exist and should exist Conservancy the organization that I spend my day job running has both types of projects We have plenty of permissive light licensed projects more than half of our projects are permissively licensed but we also have copy lefted projects and Our job as a fiscal sponsor organization for open source and free software projects is to do the things That our projects want to do and if they've picked a license They've picked a license because they believe in its policy decision So I want to help the permissively licensed projects be permissively licensed projects in the world and I want to help the copy lefted projects be copy lefted projects in the world and We could have created the Apache Software Foundation, but it already existed. There isn't an organization You can go to a few only like permissive licensing. You never want copy left Conservancy is welcoming all comers and if we didn't deal with compliance issues if we didn't do GPL enforcement, we'd be doing a disservice to our projects that have come to us and said Please help us with that issue. Please help us with GPL enforcement So some there's multiple people in this room who actually know that it's a wonderful life is my favorite movie a Couple years ago. I watch it every year, of course I usually twice a year the watch it end of watching twice in December at some point and there's this interesting exchange during the film between Spoiler alert, I don't know if I need to do a spoiler for a movie that came out in 1946 But I will anyway, so leave the room if you haven't seen it's a wonderful life and plan to see it but George is this guardian angel here of Of our of our illustrious George Bailey, by the way, I've often said I want to be the George Bailey of free software That's my life long goal but he has this this discussion with Clarence because they go into this bar and and Clarence is just saying hey I'm an angel. How's it going and people think this is weird and George is trying to tell him don't don't tell people You're an angel. Yeah, don't tell that. He's like, well, they don't believe it. Oh, they don't believe in angels here Okay, sorry, they don't believe in angels. He's not really believe in angels Why would they be surprised to see one and this is how I feel about copy left as people say because there are people out there So yeah, I like copy left and I tell them I do copy left enforcement and they say, oh, that's horrible Why did you do that? Well, if you believe in copy left, why are you surprised that people have to uphold copy left? It's not magic. I Don't believe in angels. So if I saw an angel, I would be surprised But if I believed in angels, why would I be surprised to see one? Why are people surprised to see copy left? Enforcement if they say they support copy left yet most people are many people are not most but many people are Many people are think this is the world's ending because copy left being enforced And it's the position of most for-profit companies in the Linux base. They are opposed to non-profit organizations doing enforcement of copy left. I Don't think it's logically consistent because many of those companies say they're supportive of copy left Some of them are against it which then it's logically consistent Um The fact of the matter is they're acting in their own self-interest. That's what companies do. I Put on a slide earlier at a Related conference that was here on site this week that oh they act in the interest of their shareholders And they're legally bound to do so somebody told me that wasn't quite right So the fact is they do generally act in their own corporate financial self-interest and They even use GPL enforcement when it suits them We've seen multiple cases of this of companies that otherwise we're not supportive of enforcing the GPL But they use GPL enforcement on their own copyrights when it suits them and In fact, I had a very strange experience with a very with a representative of a very large corporation At this conference last year and we walked around that marina in San Diego Where where it was where this conference was last year and this representative turns to me It says you don't understand if you don't stop doing GPL enforcement on Linux and busybox and Samba my company will stop using that software and I said you kind of flatter me that I Doing enforcement on three programs can change the business strategy of some big company Don't really see how that can be true I'm you I'm not that important in the world by far and as we get back and we're walking up the steps into the Venue he says oh, but by the way if you see any violations of our competitors let us know because we'll help you enforce there This seems pretty hypocritical to me Needless to say even though I've found violations among his competitors. I haven't gotten in touch So here's what I talk about religion So I went to I used to be a Catholic. I'm an atheist now but I went to a Catholic College and We I took a class on Flannery O'Connor and there's this interesting piece in in her habit of being where she talks about debating with Protestants regarding the issue of transubstantiation Karen may be the only person in the room who knows what transubstantiation is so I might have to explain it Catholics believe that the Eucharist is literally the blood and body of Christ like genetically it's a Catholic belief most Protestants don't share it and This fellow your account is having this arguing argument with a Protestant and and the Protestant says it's a beautiful symbol That's what matters. It's a symbol Flannery says this that's how I feel about the GPL if it's just a symbol of oh, we're gonna we're gonna support software freedom So we've slapped the GPL on our code to say Let's support software freedom But that's all you do with it You don't actually try to make sure that people comply with the license and give people software freedom Why bother with it at all to hell with the GPL if that's all you're gonna do with it I think We might as well use the Apache license if we're not going to enforce the GPL when people violate it and Unenforced copy left is functionally equivalent to a permissive license Because the only time the copy left parts matter is when somebody fails to comply voluntary compliance happens all the time in the permissive License communities people voluntarily give upstream to Apache projects all day long Beautiful contribution to our community. It's wonderful that they choose to do that It's their choice. They're not required People do the same for GPL projects lots of people even if it weren't GPL they would give upstream But there are people who choose to prioritize free software when they do it with Apache license software It's fully permitted when they do it with GPL software. It's not and when they do we should do something about it So Why are you making me give this talk because you most of the room knows this and I feel very weird I'm talking on this slide. This is the history of the busybox enforcement briefly Okay, that's fine. That's fine. You've never seen this slide. I use this slide a collab summit This is the exact the rest of my slide deck from here on out is the exact slide deck from collapse on it That early stuff was the only new stuff. So now this is my collapse on the top. Ah, there you go Okay, okay, okay, so it just feels weird. I know you all so well What's that I'm more nervous giving this talk to this group Than I would be if it was full right because it's all these people who know me. Well, right?  I've had a personal conversation with each one of you today It's a little weird. Okay, it's You know, I'm more nervous than you've probably ever seen me giving a talk. I mean really it's weird So so so the history of busybox, which you all know is is Erica Anderson rewrote it from scratch more or less Starting around 2001 after it had been used in the Debbie and project for a while because he realizes it can be used for embedded systems and what happens is over the next Six or seven years is it quickly becomes the standard for building embedded systems But Linux with busybox and you can build an embedded system operating system very very easily have every basically everything you need for the operating system It's the peanut butter and jelly in my view of operating systems, but it's almost always used out of compliance With both the busybox license GPL and the Linux license so for years I did enforcement for the busybox project as you all know and A little while ago. Oh, this doesn't the title doesn't make any sense because the oh, no It's I was supposed to carry that picture over so the C says it's degrading, right? So I don't know I think that it's okay for what we were doing in busybox enforcement, which was we had the busybox developers lined up to do enforcement and We would ask and I've talked about this in my talks before that under section four of the GPL when you lose your distribution rights to a program you lose them forever effectively under version two of the GPL and Only the copyright holders can restore them One of the things the busybox developers decided to do Was say we want before we restore your rights for busybox we want to see compliance on all the GPL programs in The embedded system and of course Linux was there because it's the peanut butter and jelly of embedded systems that busybox and Linux go together a number of people got upset about this and The people the funny thing is is and I've talked about this in other talks Among the people who were upset about the situation after while we're the busybox developers themselves because While they were asking for comprehensive compliance as part of what they wanted to require over time They kind of became a little Upset that they were the poster child the Linux project was annoyed as well.  I have a link on the slides You all read the the John Corbett's LWN article a tempest in a toy box And so as this is happening This is where Dennis really starts who's the current maintainer visitors say wait, you know we're the poster child for GPL and He says to me more people as I'm walking through Brussels before Fosdom 2012 Dennis says to me More people know my project for GPL enforcement than for the technology and it bothers me Because I care about the GPL, but I want to be known for writing great code that happens to be GPL not having a GPL project That's code, right? And so I said that makes sense and he convinced me in the end that we should have Linux developers involved He was also sort of annoyed. He's like why am I why am I doing the enforcement work for Linux guys? Why don't this guys do the enforcement work themselves? Because they should be here with us. Why are they standing with us together if they care about the GPL? They should stand with us if they don't care about the GPL and sort of a flannery reconnaissance Although he didn't literally say this. I'm thinking tell with them if they don't care about the GPL, right? Well, like why go why go out on a limb for Linux? So Dennis says well, why don't you talk? To Linux people and people, you know in the Linux community and start enforcing for them now the thing Dennis didn't know when he says this to me is that Various Linux developers particularly Matthew Garrett, but plenty other developers have been asking me for years Why won't you enforce for me? I'm like, well, I don't really have a project for you Busybox is a member of Conservancy and Linux obviously is not a member of Conservancy So I don't know how to structure it, you know, I have to figure out how to structure it in the right way and What we did is we sat down with our board of directors and our lawyers and said can we structure a project? It's just about compliance. That's what we did. That's what the GPL compliance project for Linux developers is So what we did as part of that was we sort of got all the projects together who GPL and we talked to all of them and said How do you feel about compliance?  And pretty much all of them agreed Basically all of them that are GPL and LGP out agreed that we should get a source release that works from GPL violators If one of our projects is violated and if the GPL is infringed copyrights infringed violating the GPL we should get that and what we came to was Basically agreements with all our projects that Conservancy will do the work we we collaborate with the copyright holders involved we just have a mailing list and We talk every time there's a compliance matter. We talk about it and decide how we're going to proceed Now it turns out as we would expect busybox and Linux are the mostly violated Samba actually has a lot of violations on it as well once we started doing compliance for Samba We've had a number of different Samba matters. We've done one or two for other projects We've had one for Inkscape once we've done a few for For Mercurial there's been a few times when when Mercurial's GPL has been violated and we just work together with the copyright holders and Any copyright holder can join they sign an agreement with Conservancy It has to be approved by the project's leadership committee so that so we make sure that there's agreement among everybody that we're going to be doing that And then Linux developers can join as well Now I want to be very clear that Linux is not part of Conservancy in the way the busybox and Inkscape and Samba and Mercurial are part of Conservancy It's just a very narrow project specifically tuned to those Linux developers who hold copyrights in the Linux kernel who want to enforce the GPL with us and we have 16 I think now with us who are major copyright holders in Linux and The most important thing when we talk to violators and all of you know this because all of you know about this compliance activity I don't understand why I'm giving this talk, but It's really a collaboration with the party who violated the goal is to talk with them and to get compliance Now the fact of the matter is is that So many of them and I've talked about this in my talks that you've all seen before have insisted on confidentiality and said We'll come into compliance. Well, we'll do the right thing with GPL But we don't want anybody ever know we violated because it's too embarrassing and I've been agreeing to those confidentiality agreements for years and years Ironically, I am probably under more NDAs than most of you now not NDAs for generally useful technical information So it's I'm not under NDA for the source code I'm under NDA for the details of who violated when and how they came into compliance Which is not the technical information the technical operation they released a source code on their websites But they always ask for this and it really is frustrating because people question my methods question my motives question everything I am a pariah in the world because I enforce the GPL All the time. I've lost jobs over it. I have been called names over it I mean you name it. I've I've taken it for the GPL and and It's very hard for me because I can't go out and say well look look at this company It came into compliance and they let they were they were glad and we work with them and so forth until recently Samsung actually agreed to let us say publicly that we had worked with them and helped them come into compliance and they did an amazing job and The amazing thing about what happened with Samsung is that? Not too long ago 2008. I was a plaintiff in a lawsuit against Samsung over GPL violations in their TVs, which is public and Samsung did an amazing job in that source release and that's that I can talk about because it's public that source release generated a Alternative firmware community for Samsung TVs called the Sammy go community It's on the internet you can go and look at it and they've literally taken the Samsung Release which by the way has some of the best GPL compliance release I've ever seen they've modified it and they've made it so you can put a DVR on the SD card and plug it into the Samsung TV And now you can't get that directly from Samsung, but they've actually shown how GPL compliance can make a community of developers making those Samsung devices more valuable than they were the day They ship from Samsung which only helps Samsung to have devices that people can hack and improve and on this new situation Samsung was very quick to respond worked with us very well They GPL the code that they were supposed to GPL. They put it out there It's I mean clients matters take a long time and this was a complicated one And within weeks they had the source code up there And they wanted to make a public notice and say go ahead tell everybody publicly what happened and that it worked out Well, so I'm really appreciative of that Now the last thing I'm gonna talk about which this is gonna be more of a revelation with more people in the room But I pretty much talked about this issue with all of you at one point So I used to avoid this this elephant in the room that we have which is this question of our modules a derivative work of Linux and You know what I think you talked about with all day Yeah, most of you anyway, you know that I believe that they're almost always and I've talked to plenty of lawyers and I've had more conversations with Dan Ravershire about derivative works of copyright than than anything and We believe that it's pretty difficult to create us an issue a situation where a Linux module isn't a derivative work The limit the module with the kernels not a derivative whole Many corporate lawyers disagree Karen can tell you the case law is very limited on this We both sides believe they're correct and there isn't a general rule. It's gonna matter the details are gonna matter And oh, it's cut off a little bit and the people who are the political opponents of GPL enforcement say this is going to be That says the ground war of GPL That that's where we're gonna have this big fight And we probably will I think at some day have to have this fight Linux's licenses at a crossroads. There's no question in my mind. We're at a crossroads now There are lots and lots of copyright holders and Linux who believe the GPL means what it says that they contributed under the terms of GPL version 2 only that it says derivative works need to be licensed as a whole under this license and That modules have to be free software There are other copyright holders who disagree with that. There are copyright holders out there who have literally said to me I wish Linux were LGPL. It should have been LGPL. They've said It's not that's why we had this disagreement When I started this compliance thing It's hard to get Linux Linus to talk about Licensed stuff Karen must know this he doesn't like to have those kinds of conversations So I cornered him at the Google party in 2012 right after we'd announced this program Because I kind of felt I needed to get his blessing and I said to him Linus You know I launched this compliance program for Linux developers I learned how you feel about it and this is what he said to me He said I you used to push copyright assignment I hate copyright assignment You know that and the reason that I didn't want to do copyright assignment in Linux is because I felt one of the reasons He said is I felt that every developer should make their own decisions about the GPL And I want each developer to have their own copyright and make their own decisions So I feel like I've got the blessing from Linus that I need to feel like I'm doing the right thing by the project Leader lots of other major contributors are working with us. The question is what happens next. I don't know what's going to happen next But whatever it is, I won't do any action myself without the support of developers ultimately Conservancy is an organization to serve our developers and do what they tell me to do and my only veto powers If the IRS says it's wrong, that's the only veto power I have when I do actions to the Conservancy the rest of it the developers tell me what to do and I say yes It's okay with the IRS or no, it's not that's my job And I'm working with developers who have significant copyrights in Linux So we have to figure out what happens next So I left plenty of time for Q&A Expecting there be people here a lot more people here who would want to like give me a hard time I don't think most of you probably want to give me a hard time. So why don't we have the discussion? I proposed we have instead of my talk And I'll take my mic off and we'll just like have a conversation


Hi! My name is Eleanor. I'm from the Philippines. I recently completed the 120R Tafel online course and I find the lessons very challenging as I had to study hard. It was a great experience and it's a necessary first step for me as it cleared up some of my questions and confusions about how to teach English and its grammar effectively or how to prepare lesson plans. They also provide teaching ideas and materials for different lessons that will be useful to spark up the students interest in learning English. I'm glad that I chose ITTT because I feel that I'm prepared and confident to teach English. I would highly recommend anyone who's thinking of taking a Tafel course to choose ITTT because they make sure that you are really prepared to teach English as a foreign language. Thank you and I wish everyone the best of luck!


Oh, that's a huge brook trout. Woo! That's awesome. I got it. There you go. That's a friggin' parrot. Ow! That was awesome. Did you start going around that hole? Dude, I come cut the water. The hole was boiling when I jumped off my sled. You see me? Yeah. I'm going to go house fire.


Hey everyone, today we'll be turning any notebook you want into a bullet journal. My name is Nicole and I work in the studio which is a makerspace inside of the Long Beach Public Library. Today on Make Time, we'll be working on creating a bullet journal. If you've never heard of it, a bullet journal is a customized notebook that you can use as a planner, diary, or just a creative outlet. It can also help you organize your thoughts and unwind from stress. Bullet journaling was developed by someone named Ryder Carroll, who wanted a fast, simple, and effective method for keeping track of the day-to-day things in his life. But since then, bullet journaling has evolved into a lot more than that. Anyone can make a bullet journal in whatever style they want. All you really need to start your bullet journal is any notebook and a pen. Of course, it's easy to complicate things beyond that, but you don't need very much to start. If your notebook doesn't have the kind of paper you want to use, such as dotted or gridded, you can easily print some online and make your own notebook. Studio Guide Richard showed how to do this in a previous Make Time video called Japanese Book Binding. Lastly, you can also gather some stickers, colored pencils or markers, and decorative tape. But it's really about your creativity, so don't worry if you think you're missing something. Everyone sets up their bullet journal differently, and there are lots of potential pages you can add. However, we're going to focus on four basic pages to get you started. Whenever you start a new notebook, it's nice to be able to look ahead and see what's in front of you. An easy way to do this is a future log, which generally lists the next couple months or a whole year's worth of the calendar. Next to each month, you list important dates or future events, such as birthdays, holidays, and vacations. You can also use it to outline long-term goals, like what you want to accomplish in six months. There are many different ways to lay this out, so don't worry about copying me. Every time I start a new section of my notebook, I like to use a title page. This helps me mark different months or years. Your title page can be as simple as the name of the month, or as complex as a collage or drawing that you spend a lot of time on. I'm going to make a title page for June, since that's what month it is. However, you can make a title page for the whole year, or with your name if you're just starting your notebook. One other thing you might want to include on your title page is a key. A key is just a tiny chart that lists all the symbols you plan on using and what they mean. For example, you might use an open dot to represent a task that needs to be done or a star for something important. Once you've started a new section with a title page, you can add in a monthly overview. In the original writer-carol method, this page was just a list of dates with important events next to them. However, you can do a lot more than that. For instance, you can design your monthly overview to look like a calendar with little boxes for each day, or you might want to use it to list a collection of short-term goals. You can also combine your monthly overview with your title page for the month if you don't feel like writing too much. Any way you make it is good. The idea is just to let you see your obligations at a glance. Lastly, we have the daily log, which is a key page of a bullet journal. It looks different for everyone because everyone uses their journal in a different way on a day-to-day basis. For some people, one day might take up a whole page, such as if you want to keep a diary in your bullet journal. Others might prefer a weekly grid where they can plan out their work or school schedules and balance to-dos. The most common ways to lay out a daily or weekly log are in either a vertical or a horizontal spread. In a vertical layout, each day is its own column. This is great if you write in short bullets or you want to categorize different parts of your day. In a horizontal layout, each day is its own row. This is a better fit if you tend to write long descriptions to yourself or if you have bigger handwriting. Keep in mind, though, none of these are mandatory. Maybe you prefer your days collaged across the page so that you have space for doodling and photos, or you want to design a grid or other unique layout for your weeks. If complicated layouts aren't your thing, that's completely okay. You can just write down what you need for the day and then draw a line at the end to start the next one. Remember that if it overwhelms you, then it won't be productive or enjoyable. Although these pages will get you started with a planner-style bullet journal, you can mix and match anything you want to make it your own. Some other common pages to add are tracker pages, goal pages, collages, photo galleries, and more. For me, one unique page I have is a gas tracker, where I can write down what I'm spending on gas and also any service that is done to my car. I also try not to worry about having everything in the perfect place. For instance, this page is a grocery list right next to my daily spread, and this one is just a ton of random doodles. Let's take a look at how other people are using their bullet journals. Hey, I'm Emily and this is my bullet journal. I've only been using it a few weeks, but already it's helped me keep track of all kinds of things, like my Dungeons & Dragons games and remembering to water my plants. Plus, I love using all kinds of colors and stickers to make it look awesome. Hi, I'm Richard and this is my bullet journal. So it starts out with this key, and I have different symbols that I will put next to my notes. So I know the priority that each note I make has and their importance that they have. So this is really helpful. I always have something to go back to if I forget what these different icons mean. Next to that, I have an overview of my year. I started last year. As you can see, I've missed quite a few months, but I'm going back on the wagon starting with May. So this is where I'll put the broad notes that I have. So things are important to me, but I don't really need to go into detail with. Past that, I'll have two pages dedicated to a whole month. On this side, I'll have more detailed notes on the tasks I need to complete. And then here, I have different habits that I am trying to accomplish. So the way this works is it's a grid pattern. I have the days numbered, and then I put a little x when I accomplish that task for that month. So yeah, and I have some space to add even more habits. But yeah, I'm excited to use this, and I'm excited to see what you guys come up with. Hi Makers, this is Courtney from the Studio, and here is my bullet journal I've been using for over a year now. I love the dot paper because it's easy to make calendars and check off boxes. I also use it to take notes and make lesson plans. How will you organize for the future? The Studio staff has definitely shown us some great examples. But if you're looking for even more, there's a huge bullet journaling community on the web. You can check out popular platforms like Tumblr, Pinterest, and Reddit for more inspiration. Just remember that it's your journal. If something doesn't work out, move on to the next page. Don't get overwhelmed and simply make it whatever you need. Thanks for making time for make time, and we'll see you from more Studio content next time.
