talks: Tim Berners-Lee of W3C, a no-go

[dnnclsn]

		  We can rule out Tim Berners-Lee. He rarely gives speaking engagements, is  based at MIT in the USA, according to my contact he could not speak or debate  freely on Free/Open-Source because of his position in the  WorldWideWebConsortium, and the topic is not one of his primary interests.

		  Paul

Within the Discussion Forums we have a user calling themselves Lee who is posting items under the name of Anonymous using the email address of padams@hemswell.lincoln.ac.uk. This is a confusing state of affairs because I have no idea who they are. A search in the Members section under Anonymous and Lee returns no info. I am tempted to reply to one of the postings by Lee but I am concerned that all might not be right with the status or validatity of Lee.
