Richard Stallman visited China at September 2005, these are some photos that I took when he was in Beijing. SINA's CTO, Li Songbo, invited Richard and Hong Feng to visit SINA.COM at Sep. 16, 2005. There they gave a wonderful lecture about free software and the practice in the CS education, the main fruit is Hong Feng's Hacker Training Program(HTP). In this photo, we were in front of SINA building.

We were in Li Songbo(SINA CTO)'s office. There we had a nice talk, we were all very happy. As we know, Li Songbo is very good at Internet technology and free software, so when he meet Richard in person, he was very exciting too. :)
