Someone asked on a SAGE list what Richard Stallman's speaking schedule
is in Australia. Turns there isn't a single place that publishes all
the places you can see him, or at least I can't find it. As I think a
lot of people might like to see him, I put on together.
His trip is sponsored by NICTA, http://www.nicta.com.au/. Most of the
talks are being organised by local ACS chapters:

The ACS lectures are free to all including non-ACS members, but you have to register.
His talks page (http://www.fsf.org/events/rms-speeches.html ) says he is
also appearing at other venues around the country. You might hope that
list includes the all the ACS ones, but nope. In fact even the ACS
Event summary page doesn't list all the ACS ones. Relevant additional
entries are:

It seems that when he is giving two talks in the one city (as he does in
Brisbane and Melbourne) they are different talks.
Right now this email is the most complete itinerary I've seen for
Stallman's Australian visit, but it still isn't the full quid. Maybe a
bit of crowd sourcing would make it better. Post you additions /
corrections here. I've put up a public calendar here:
