I am available for more speaking engagements, providing my expenses are covered. See my travel rules for details. I can give talks or workshops on the following subjects:

The `standard road show' referred to above is basically `The Open Source Revolution', with five modules on (a) the bazaar development model, (b) socio-anthropology of hacker customs, (c) open source economics and business models, (d) effective open-source advocacy, (e) a long strange trip report (my life as an accidental revolutionary). I do whichever of these modules the audience tells me it wants in the time available.

I don't use visuals, nor will I require an operating computer nearby for my talks. I prefer to work without a podium and with a hand microphone (cordless if possible).
