First Software Freedom Day
August 28, Online
The Software Freedom Day initiative intends to make the world aware of
the existence, availability, and high quality of free and open source
software (FOSS), and to encourage its use by as many people as
possible.
It's a global grassroots campaign and anyone can participate. It is up
to the individual teams to choose how to organize their efforts
locally,
but the organisers are offering to assist with bulk production of
posters, T-shirts, CDs, etc. FOSS advocacy groups around the world are
invited to become partners in this event.
