I will be pleased to administering it. I believe that it is very important to have the list. There are many countries of Hispanic speech and although each country already have a channel of national communication, this list will be good to share ideas and experiences with the growth of the event as our goal. Because as of today, it is frankly incipient the participation of the community Hispanic speaker. If we work hard this year, the next one will be better. Since 2005 the FLISoL is carried out in Latin america (Latin American Festival of Free Sofware), participating hundreds of cities in more than twenty countries. It would be interesting to have two annual events (one in April and another in September) of massive diffusion and international integration. PreguntasLinux.Org has provided successfully support post installfest to the FLISoL, and we are willing to collaborate in the same way with the SFD.

Robert, absolutamente de acuerdo, es lo más lógico y natural. Bien, no tengo problema en administrarla, gracias. Creo que es muy importante disponer de la lista. Son muchos los paises de habla hispana y si bien en cada pais ya disponen de un canal de comunicación nacional, esta lista servirá para compartir ideas y experiencias con miras a que el evento crezca. Porque a la fecha es francamente incipiente la participación de la comunidad hispano parlante. Si trabajamos duro este año, el próximo será mejor. En america latina, desde el año 2005 se realiza el FLISoL (Festival Latinoamericano de Sofware Libre), participando una centena de ciudades en una veintena de paises. Sería interesante tener dos eventos anuales (uno en abril y otro en septiembre) de difusión masiva e integración internacional. PreguntasLinux.Org ha provisto exitosamente de soporte post installfest al FLISoL, y estamos dispuestos a colaborar de la misma manera con el SFD.

Re: [SFD-discuss] Spanish speakers mail list

by Robert Schumann

In fact, there is already a Spanish-speakers mailing list operating on the SFD server: http://mail.sf-day.org/lists/listinfo/planning-es It was established during last year's SFD campaign, but had very low traffic. When we reorganised mailing lists earlier this year to create SFD-announce and SFD-discuss, this list was hidden but not deleted (the previous lists were called team-contacts, planning-en and planning-es). One of our projects for the SFD "off season" - after 15 September this year - was to improve our multilingual capability by examining how which languages are most in demand among our participants. Feel free to continue using the planning-es list, and if you are interested I would be happy to make you a list administrator. Robert.

We strongly encourage it. Would you like a mailing list set up on the SFD website instead so that all the archives are together?

If you have registered your team for the event on our registration page, then you get the free SFD team pack which includes the ballons, stickers, 3 tshirts and CDs as per your registration. If you want to purchase _additional_ stuff we have SFD tshirts and packs of The Open CD on our online shop. Hope that clears it up :) http://softwarefreedomday.org/registration - instructions for registration http://softwarefreedomday.org/cgi/register.html - online form > I am from Macedonia, so the message from Novica Nakov from yesterday applies > on me too, disks are not necessary...so can we work over that issue? Please just ensure you are registered and if you don't need disks just put 0 in those categories in your registration.
