by Frederic Muller - SFI Aug. 26, 2011

Aug. 26, 2011

Dear all, Just wanted to let you know that I have received messages from a few teams who have received the SFD team packs. Those teams are in: - Germany - Sri Lanka - Singapore - China People seem to be rather happy with the stuff... No sign of any Ubuntu CD pack yet though. Just wanted to let you know, it's time to keep those phone on during day time or watch your home mailbox. Fred

An idea for a SFD Promotion
by Buddhika Kurera Aug. 26, 2011

Aug. 26, 2011

Hello All, I have an idea to produce a SFD promotional video. The idea is as follow as a draft. "We need to request SFD event hosting teams to say HAPPY SOFTWARE FREEDOM DAY on their own language(this should be said with lot of energy and in an effective way). When they send us the video we can add all together and make a nice video containing all the countries and they say above in their language, via this we can send a strong feel about the spread of the SFD all over the globe." PLS forward comment and enhance the idea by adding yours too. Thanks -- Regards, *Buddhike Chandradeepa Kurera* Fedora Ambassador Sri Lanka Event Liaison - Design Team

I was surprised with how well SFD's logo is with a brown background :-) A couple of suggestions to next years tho: 1) more care with the packaging: don't ask me "how to avoid it", but the transfer "sheets" got wrinkled, to the point of possibly danification of two of them (we'll try to transfer them anyway, but I'm not sure the result will be 100% nice), and the banner was so pressed against itself, and possibly was folded shortly after manufacture, so when I was unfolding it the paint in several sides was stuck together, with the result that, finaly unfolded, the banner isn't perfect in the colors (fortunately this affected the background, so it's no big deal); 2) regarding the documentation in the package, next time it would be nice to have included the documentation on "how to use the t-shirt transfers", or at least a link to the wiki page explaining that much. Also, it could be useful to explain in more detail the contents of the package (suggestions regarding how to use/give the shirts, talking about doing several sizes, which sizes to do the most...; suggestions regarding the use of the banner, maybe with pictures of inside and outside uses of SFD banners from previous editions; identification of the several elements of the package (so people can more easilliy recognize the transfers, I was expecting them, but if someone wasn't they could, for instance, mistake them with stickers); what to do with the DVDs (after all there's only one copy of each, what can people do with them?); ideas on how to use the stickers (for instance, if you're doing talks and presentations it would be nice to have paper notebooks and pens to give, but it might be more cost effective to buy simple notebooks and put the sticker there than to make SFD notebooks...). Well, now that we got the package, let's try the t-shirts and make a video :-) Thank you very much for the package and all the work around SFD, -- Marcos Marado ANSOL -- http://ansol.org ------------------------------ Message: 4 Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2011 13:56:25 -0300 From: Marcelo Araldi <marcelo.araldi(a)yahoo.com.br> Subject: Re: [SFD-discuss] Packs (feedback) To: Open discussions about SFD <sfd-discuss(a)sf-day.org> Message-ID: <CAB7YsgZeLechXR1CvAOsvDEJt1HVH6Vuzs4aF-wb3Za-+FGGCQ(a)mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Nice!

Gmane.org as a Web interface for @sf-day.org mailing lists?
by Ivan Shmakov Aug. 24, 2011

Aug. 24, 2011

Well, we've already had this discussion in the past, but still, is there a good reason /not/ to use http://gmane.org/? Actually, making a mailing list appear at Gmane is thoroughly simple. There's no (I believe) negative side effects on the infrastructure, and it requires very little assistance from the list's administrators… … Except for one thing: it'd be nice to have the /verbatim/ mailing list archives uploaded to Gmane. And these archives are only available to the administrators. So, is there a chance it could be done? -- FSF associate member #7257

Spanish countdown timer!
by Frederic Muller - SFI Aug. 23, 2011

Aug. 23, 2011

is finally available... Code is almost complete and you can find it in the wiki page here: http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/CountDown/es In short if you live in Spain (UTC+1) this is the code: <a href="http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/es/"><img src="http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/countdown/banner1-UTC+1-es.png" border="0" width="190" height="200" alt="Celebrate SFD with us on September 17!"></a> But then if you live in the Colombia (UTC-5) for example, the code will be: <a href="http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/es/"><img src="http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/countdown/banner1-UTC-5-es.png" border="0" width="190" height="200" alt="Celebrate SFD with us on September 17!"></a> except that the alt tag is not translated. If someone can send me back the proper translation I'll update the wiki. Thanks a lot and over-use it! Fred
