Welcome back to another season of Code for Thought. And I'd like to kick it off with an interview with Bastien Guerry. Working for the French government, Bastien promotes the use, creation and distribution of Free Software. And in our conversation we discuss the four freedoms as defined by the Free Software Foundation.

Bastien is also an active member of the Emacs community and a contributor to one of the modes: Org mode - a note taking facility. Having used Emacs for a long time it's good to see that it is alive and well.
