Richard Stallman Falls Ill At Conference

Posted by samzenpus on from the outcome-uncertain dept.

itwbennett writes "Stallman, 59, was speaking at the North Campus of the Polytechnic University of Cataluna when he started to feel ill and called for a doctor. It was originally reported in the Spanish press that Stallman was hypertensive, but it is not yet known what his eventual health status was, just that he left the building later under his own power." He is apparently okay and any significant confirmed updates will be posted here.

    Having a low UID does not mean you have anything meaningful to say.

    A case in point.
