We're pleased to have Ben
Collins-Sussman and Brian "Fitz" Fitzpatrick join us once
again for the Open Source Developers @ Google Speaker Series. On Thursday, October
25th, Ben and Fitz will cover "What's In It for Me?: How Your Company Can Benefit from Open
Sourcing Code." During the evening you'll learn more about various approaches companies use
when releasing their software into open source, as well as a bit about the benefits and
drawbacks of each method. Plus, you'll get to enjoy the near-legendary repartee between these
two Subversion developers.
Like all sessions of the Open Source Developers @ Google Speaker Series, Ben
and Fitz's presentation will be open to the public. Doors open at 6:30 PM at our Mountain View campus; guests
should plan to sign in at Building 43 reception upon arrival. Refreshments will be served and
all are welcome and encouraged to attend. The presentation will also be taped and published
along with all of the public Google Tech Talks.
For those of you who
were unable to attend our last session, you can watch the video of Michael Still's recent
presentation Practical
