Hi team leaders and other SFD enthusiasts,
I hope you all had a good Software Freedom Day, and managed to spread the message. After months of navigating towards 15 September via my computer screen and a few telephone calls, it felt really good to be out on the street, talking to people and telling them about how software freedom affects them. And we had a lovely sunny day in Cambridge too!
We'd like to hear about how your SFD 2007 event went, in particular with respect to
* (approximately) how many members of the public were reached
through your event
* how many team members were involved in running your event - both beforehand and on the day
* how many hours your event lasted
* how many Ubuntu CDs you handed out
Head over to
http://cgi.softwarefreedomday.org/event_report.html and fill in a few little pieces of information. You'll need to fill in the same email address that you originally used to register your SFD team. Thanks for taking the time to help us out with this - and don't forget
that, aside from the information we're looking for here, you're also
welcome to write a bit more about your event and post some photos on
your team's wiki page.
By visiting our reporting page, you will also get the chance to let us have any feedback regarding how you think SFD has gone, and what could be done to make it even bigger and better next year.
Don't forget that there are also some "One Laptop Per Child" laptops available to win in our competition [1] - so don't forget to gather any news reports about your event and put together a good set of photos for us to look at! More details about the competition will be in a later email.
Thanks to all the teams for making SFD 2007 the biggest yet!
Robert
