"Just for fun, or a clever, highly effective protest? Hackers, geeks and
nerds gathered together at the 7th FISL - Internacional Free Software
Forum, in Porto Alegre (Brazil) last week, were astounded when they got

Foundation and creator of the GPL, was charging R$ 10 (about US$ 3) for
an autograph and R$ 5 (less than US$ 2) to get his picture taken by free
software enthusiasts at the event floor."
