In these banners, the words: "Hoje" (today), "Até ano que vem" (see you on), "Prepare-se" (get ready for).

Call for Help on SVG Counter

by Alexandro Colorado

Hello I put a Call for help on the FB group and page of the SFD, would be nice if I can get it reposted as SFD on FB, twitter and Identi.ca. I am sure much more people will pay attention to the call, if it comes from the official SFD account.

I had a quick look at it seems that all the text in Pt-Pt or Pt-Br are the same. If this is the case (I checked only 3 days:00here, 00 and 05 and might have missed something) then we don't need a special language image for Pt. All time zones are supported in the Pt images already. Then if the only difference is the ALT text in the image code we can simply have 2 version of that code made with the same graphic. Can you confirm or infirm my "findings" *cough* *cough* *didn't find a better term* ;-) Thanks. Fred

Re: [SFD-discuss] SFD countdown shifts 1 day?

by Frederic Muller - DFF

hehe.. that's a good one. In fact the website countdown if I remember correctly is set to make the difference with a SFD at midnight (so very early morning on the 21st) in Dallas where our server is located (thank you again Linode). The png countdowns are set to... everyone liking, that is you decide where your SFD event is going to happen based on your timezone. And then again as specified in the countdown source code page http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/CountDown/code we count SFD to be on 21st but starting at 3am which could explain for another time difference. Now if you get back to us with very specific data to be able to calculate the real time difference between the two then maybe we can comment upon your statement. At this stage we don't have enough information to fix anything though. :) Also since the website countdown is inside the page you can also get the source code from what is displayed and check by yourself if there is (or not) a bug in the calculation. I hope I have provided enough information for you to ponder on the topic. Thanks.
