=== Building awareness === Some supporters of the free software movement take up [[public speaking]], or host a stall at software-related conferences to raise awareness of software freedom. This is seen as important since people who receive free software, but who are not aware that it is free software, will later accept a non-free replacement or will add software that is not free software.<ref>{{cite web |title=Transcript of Stallman speaking at WSIS |url=http://fsfe.org/en/fellows/ciaran/ciaran_s_free_software_notes/transcript_of_rms_at_wsis_on_is_free_open_source_software_the_answer#wsis--importance-of-awareness |publisher=[[Ciarán O'Riordan]] |access-date=2006-10-07 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081221131332/http://fsfe.org/en/fellows/ciaran/ciaran_s_free_software_notes/transcript_of_rms_at_wsis_on_is_free_open_source_software_the_answer#wsis--importance-of-awareness |archive-date=2008-12-21 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
