I've been asked by a local Linux Users' Group to give a talk on povray. (Don't
laugh!)  The meat of my talk will involve a demonstration of what the software
can do by opening the files associated with one of my big projects and
explaining what the software is doing.   I wanted to give a brief intro to the
software, and I think particularly interesting would be the GPL plans and the
legend of RMS personally giving it a thumbs down at a trade show.

Are there speaker's notes already put together somewhere?

  RMS doesn't like it when a popular free software isn't under the GPL.
(Or didn't like it back then. Perhaps he has loosened up a bit nowadays.)
