14 Sep '11

Hi all ! I have started new Open-Source distro for Windows, based on TheOpenCD, copying it's look and feel. Original TheOpenCD and it's fork, theopendisc, are both inactive. It is time for something new. The new project, named Qumble, already has BETA1 and forum ready. link: http://qumble.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2 Could you help me test it and advertise it (help spread the word) ? --- P.S. http://softwarefreedomday.org/ ---> "Contact US" is broken. I have tried like 10 times, but always failed in the "captcha" visual recognition stage. Please check it out. (or disable this test) Best Wishes, -- -Alexey Eromenko "Technologov", 31.08.2011.

Hi guys! We've now reach 402 teams with a few extra countries compared to 2010 (we've also lost a lot of teams in China for example ~40) and are getting huge web traffic and excellent press coverage: http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/press I am compiling a small list of big media site where I'll submit a short intro/PR and keep my fingers crossed. If you help me to find the contact/submit page for big media in your country I don't mind submitting as well (or maybe I should just share the text, later today but the text needs to be slightly adapted per country). So far i was thinking to submit at: USA: - CNN - FoxNews - NY times - Computer world - Reuters - ABC News - USA Today - CS News - Washington post UK: - The Guardian - BBC - The Register France: - TV Channel 1 & 2 - Le Monde - Le Parisien - Le point - Liberation - Le Figaro - Nouvelobs Germany: - ?? Thanks. Fred

I downloaded OpenDisc.11.09.iso (or so I thought), but when I finished burning the disk, it seemed to be OpenDisc 09.07! Can someone explain the discrepancy? Francis Wilson
