Just under 3 weeks to go!

by Pia Waugh

Hi all, Software Freedom Day is just around the corner! With just under 3 weeks to go you should all be well underway with your planning and promotion of events. We have almost 400 teams all around the world also preparing and getting ready for their events, so make sure you get posters up, information about your events on the radio and in local media, and your websites up to date! Please ensure your wiki page is either updated or linked to a website you have up to date. We will be running the best event competition again, and when you complete your reports after the event you'll be ale to simply tick a "include me in the competition" checkbox to be in the running for some great prizes including OLPC XOs. Details will be up within the week about the specifics of the competition. Remember, there is a start guide available on the website to help with tips and tricks about events planning, and ensure your volunteers all have a wonderful day, because the more they are enjoying themselves, the more inspirational and informative they can be for the mainstream we are all trying to reach :) Cheers and happy planning, Pia Waugh -- Software Freedom Day http://softwarefreedomday.org/

Extra tshirt orders - open for one week

by Pia Waugh

Hi all, We have about 100 SFD 2008 shirts leftover for sale after the first 300 teams were sent SFD packs. My personal apologies for this being available so late. Starting soon after SFD this year I will ensure we have a permanent store where SFD merchandise is available all year to avoid this rush. Orders are open for only a week so we can get the shirts to you in time, and they are USD $15 each, with $15 shipping per order, so buy one with a friend :) All proceeds go to supporting SFI to support the teams all around the world. Orders can be made here: http://sfd.openfreeway.org/ Many thanks all! Happy planning!
