Re: [SFD-discuss] Countdown(s)

by Seun Ojedeji

Hello, I just noticed that the countdown for English is now showing 2012 instead of 2013. Although it still shows that it will hold tomorrow. Here is a sample: http://fuoye.edu.ng/discover-fuoye/eventsconferences/sfd-2013 Cheers!

Countdown(s)

by Frederic Muller - DFF

Hi! A bit in a rush I've just remembered that some languages were missing image 01.png, 00.png and 00here.png meaning that the countdown are not longer appearing correctly for them. Those are: - Estonian - Persian - Arabic - Greek Please can someone who speak any of those language rush to http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/CountDown , download the svg source file and upload the 3 images under the proper page. Let me know if you need any help (I don't speak any of those languages, but I can do other things ;-) ). Thanks a lot. Fred

Re: [SFD-discuss] Handout in German?

by Frederic Muller - DFF

Hi! Yes we have many pages on the wiki to put attachments which are either the Artwork page, your own team page or any of the marketing topic which we deal with. The reason why we do this is that there are probably a lot more people looking at the wiki than looking at an email from a specific date on the mailing list archive. So great work needs great support :) ! Thank you. Fred On 19/09/13 17:26, Visvanath Ratnaweera wrote: > @mod, > > My previous try is held up in the moderation list, perhaps due to > the attachment.
