>People are free to do what they choose. As for "me and my house" (the Liberty Software Foundation), we will reach out to everybody equally as much as possible, without divisions, without barriers, without any imposed hindrances when the technology is otherwise free, available, and open to prevent such hindrances from existing.

The content the speakers deliver at SWFox isn't owned by SWFox - it's still owned by the speakers. They are free to do with it what they want, including release it for free (which a number of speakers have done, (ex. Tamar Granor, Rick Borup, etc.) The only thing the conference asks is that they wait 3 months until after the conference. Honestly, that's the way it should be.
