Pretty interesting guy. He's behind the free software movement and holds some rather interesting views.
I think he's FiNe (rigid posture, receding energy, disengaging down for Ji; choppy hand movements and a fair bit of tension near the nose, FiNe pained face, etc). What do you think?

Pi-inertia energy. Eye-centricity. Te/Fi uniform finger posture. Frequent blinks however they're the slow and sleepy kind consistent with Ni/Se rather than Si/Ne. Personal Fi smiles.
I think you are totally right about Gamma. I think I just saw the frequent blinks and immediately concluded Ne/Si. But he's much more of an Ni/Se user:
His smile looks Fi sub-polar, but I'm still struggling with eye- vs. face-centricity on this one. Any pointers roberts ?

faeruss, face / eye centricity remain the most difficult cues for me but i'll take a shot at sharing a little more of my impressions so far. Face-centrics seem like owls to me in the way they square up the face on their audience. It's not an approximate "this is close enough, they know i'm paying attention" kind of thing. It's a lock-on. A rigidity that extends from the rest of their posture. In the case of Richard Stallman, he's facing his audience nearly throughout in this clip, so one might think this is face centricity, however his face lacks any of the rigidity seen in face centrics. It remains loose, loose enough to sway or wander off at any moment. It's casual. It's not being purposefully oriented toward the audience.
I dont know if that helps any or not. I'm still some way off from articulating what i'm seeing in these particular cues.
That's a great analogy, I'll keep it in mind. I do notice that people sometimes get intimidated when they talk to me because I do exactly that: I turn and face them completely, as if saying: "now you have my attention, what is it?"
