Here’s a presentation I gave at the Girl Geek Dinners in Milan on October 24, 2008, with Bruna Gardella. There’s a version in Italian, too.

Some highlights from the presentation:

• What is Open Source (OS)
• Why Open Source
• Open Source in the world
• The Girl Geek and the Open Source World
• How to Contribute
• Appendix A: Some Open Source Alternatives for Proprietary Software
