Instead of a sign let's tape them on individual sheets to the table. The
font we should probably print them in is16.

How is the wording for this.

1. Vulnerabilities and bugs can be fixed relatively quickly.

2. Free software is a matter of the users' freedom to run, copy,
distribute, study, change and improve the software.

3. For things released as free software, if the company that makes the
software goes out of business, the software can live on. If you have a UNIX
programer you will not have to invest major bucks in another product and
migrate to
that product.

4. You never have to worry about the company that makes the free
software hiking your license fees.

5. Free software tends to be more reliable than non-free software, due to
the
lack of deadline pressures that allow more thorough bug-fixing and
bug-checking, and the larger pool of potential beta testers that allow
detecting bugs before an actual release.

6. If a new revision of your operating system is released, you can
re-compile
Open Source against that new revision to take advantage of its new features
and to insure full compatibility between the Open Source application and the
new revision of the operating system. For closed source, if the vendor
doesn't upgrade your application and it doesn't run on the new version of
the OS... sorry, you are out of luck.

7. You never have to ask permission to use Open Source in novel ways, such
as providing access to an Open Source program via the Internet so that
your remote salespeople can run it without having it installed on their own
laptop computers. With proprietary programs, if the vendor doesn't offer
licensing terms that match your needs, sorry, you can't do it.
