If you are in a position to speak about the legal side of software
licensing, that too considering how laws differ in various parts of the
world, I'll cancel my own talk about what we were originally talking about
on the Facebook group. As I recall it, the discussion on Facebook was was
about the different freedoms of the BSD and GPL licenses. I'll be more
interested to learn more about the legalities for I am myself in no
position to speak out as an authoritative figure on the legalities.

But in case we're doing the the short talk on the GPL and BSD licenses, I
think we don't have enough material to fill up one meeting (well, I know I
probably don't) so attendees should not expect something like an actual
presentation. My thought was this would have been something extra to one of
other meetings with a more interesting presentation, a bit like the OpenSSH
6.5 one.
