*Free and Open Source Software* has come a long way since its inception and while we're celebrating *SFD for the twelth time*, the FSF <http://www.fsf.org> is celebrating its 30th anniversary. Every software company now tends to use Free and Open Source Software but unfortunately that has just set the Software more as a commodity with very little benefit for advocacy, education or awareness. And so, in a world with Free Software used almost everywhere very few people notice or even care. Software Freedom Day <http://www.softwarefreedomday.org> is here to tell people why we need to remind ourselves of the importance of Software Freedom and to *get all the communities together to celebrate* and introduce their philosophy to newcomers. Probably more than ever we need to go out and demonstrate the great many things that *Free Software has done and enables everyone to do*. As usual events are listed on the SFD Map <http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/map/index.php?year=2015> and should there be no event in your area you can always get together and run one in the upcoming few weeks. On top of all the good things Free Software brings we would also like to remind people that a good way to get started can be through Outreachy, a remote internships in Free and Open Source Software <http://www.outreachy.org> open to everyone regardless of their origins or differences. The *next round of internships is from December 7 to March 7* with applications *deadline on November 2*. This is of course ideal for students in the south hemisphere as the program requires you to be available 40 hours a week but also for anyone either looking for a career change or applies what he/she has learned in a real software environment. With all these years of experience we are sure your events will shine. And if you're a little short of ideas you can always refer to our resources. <http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/Resources> One of note could be the latest Blender movie released end of August <https://gooseberry.blender.org/> maybe followed by a discussion of how the Blender Foundation has been so successful over the years. Finally we would like to *thank all the people making SFD possible* and that is *our sponsors* like the Google Open Source Programs Office <https://developers.google.com/open-source/>, Linode <http://www.linode.com>, the Free Software Foundation <http://www.fsf.org> and our various *supporters in the media and community arena*. But of course *more importantly all the various Free Software communities* from Google Developer Groups to Free Software Groups, GNU/Linux User Groups and the various universities interested in Free Software among them. So, *Happy Software Freedom Day to all of you! * *Digital Freedom Foundation. *
