I'm looking at doing a couple of in-depth feature length interviews in the next week or two. It seems I've landed the first, and the second may come in the next week or so.
The subjects are Richard M. Stallman ('almost' confirmed) and Lawrence Lessig (email has to go through secretary/assistant and I'm trying to circumvent that).
RMS' response to my approach was basic preconditions. He gets quite upset when people mix up GNU, Linux, the Free Software Movement, and Open Source.
Please comment on this and suggest research avenues.
