Can't access any websites - iinet appears to be having DNS problems
again. Been like this for a while.

The meeting tonight - by Bernard (I think, from memory), is about
licensing; GPL etc, from memory.

Is it likely to include anything like the DMCA, or, the thing that I
raised sometime ago, about a conference of USA state and federal
attorneys general, authorising legislation to remotely disable software
(in that it applies to software licensing and functionality that can be
remotely terminated without notice)?

I am hoping to be able to attend, depending on transport.
