Dear all,
With a bit of delay, the *Digital Freedom Foundation* is very happy to
announce that registration of the eleventh edition of Software Freedom
Day <http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/> opened early August. This year
we are unfortunately unable to ship any goodies for the pre-registered
teams: as we have mentioned before, our involvment with the Cambodian
system of education required us to relocate. Being happy owners of a few
special animals (CITES-II listed species
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CITES#Appendix_II>) we would not have
moved without them. This took us about 3-4 months to make it happen and
we arrived in Phnom Penh end of May. We then had to look for a place to
live, get our furnitures out of the customs and a member of our team got
hospitalized for ten days in July. With all this, identifying new
suppliers for the schwag just could not happen. Nevertheless, SFD teams
<http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/map/index.php?year=2014> have been
very patient and nice with us and hopefully *SFD 2014* will not be too
much impacted by this.
So as usual registration
<http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/cgi-bin/register.py> happens after
you have created your event page on the wiki
<http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/>. We have an exaustive guide here
<http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/StartGuide> for newcomers and for
the others who need help, the SFD-Discuss mailing
<http://mail.sf-day.org/lists/listinfo/sfd-discuss> is probably the best
place to get prompt support. We will come back with more details
regarding sponsors, things to do or worth mentioning to bring
inspiration and motivation to the celebration.
So get ready to celebrate and happy preparations to all!
The Digital Freedom Foundation
