Call for Help on SVG Counter
by Alexandro Colorado 27 Aug '16

27 Aug '16

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.

by Mohit Goyal 03 Aug '15

03 Aug '15

I had registered my team PULUG for SFD 2014 with wiki link http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2014/India/Chandigarh/PULUG But i didnt recieve any confirmation mail....but after 2days i saw that mail in my spam box, and when i tried confirming...it threw me an error..... " The registration file you are trying to access doesn't exist. This could be happening because you already activated your registration (most likely) or because the URL you are accessing is invalid. " But on my event map it PULUG is visible but in wrong city. What should i do now? Regards Mohit Goyal

Overwriting attachment files on the Wiki

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Fred: I've uploaded an iCal (.ics) file to our page on the Wiki, which I would like to keep updated as we add activities to our Software Freedom Day event. The filename should stay the same, so that when I upload a new file people will simply see the new events appear in their calendars. Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to overwrite files with the same name. Is it possible to remove that restriction?

Unto SFD in Enugu
by Onyeibo Oku 15 Aug '14

15 Aug '14

Hi everyone I'm looking to execute my first SFD event in Enugu State University of Science and Technology, Nigeria (ESUT). I have been a resource person in a similar event in 2011. I talked about my perception of Linux as a viable OS for running an architectural practice. I have also been involved in other open-source events, mostly as a Fedora Ambassador. See links[1] to [2] below. The planned event will be the first in ESUT and a sequel to the pioneer event held in University of Nigeria Enugu Campus (UNN/UNEC, 2011 -- organized by a friend who left earth a year later. [3]). I am looking to run this event a day early (19th instead) as I cannot guarantee a commendable attendance/participation on Saturday. Most of the school staff reside in town away from the campus and ESUT students like to make excuses on Saturdays. :-) The event is about a month away and I'm wondering if I might be privileged to receive some SFD goodies (T-Shirts, DVDs etc). I like some of the T-Shirt designs I see at the SFD site [4]. I need all the support I can get [5].

Yes, the thing is when someone tries to reach the webpage, there are special characters that difficult the navigation a little, for example: When a user tries to reach the g3ekarmy wiki page, it writes: http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2014/Mexico/Mexico%20City/g3ekarmy If you don't change the word from "g3ekarmy" to "G3ekArmy" specifically won't connect. Second problem is that they put the address without the space on "Mexico%20City" so if you don't write the address with the correct parameters you wont reach the wiki page of your team So you van use a shortened service like "bit.li" or "goo.gl" to shorten the link and be more user friendly, the "goo.gl" service also auto generate a qr code so you can put it on your posters/promotional to help people reach the wiki page of your team. -----Original Message----- From: "sfd-discuss-request(a)sf-day.org" <sfd-discuss-request(a)sf-day.org> Sent: ‎8/‎14/‎2014 7:33 AM To: "sfd-discuss(a)sf-day.org" <sfd-discuss(a)sf-day.org> Subject: SFD-discuss Digest, Vol 80, Issue 15 Send SFD-discuss mailing list submissions to sfd-discuss(a)sf-day.org To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://mail.sf-day.org/lists/listinfo/sfd-discuss or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to sfd-discuss-request(a)sf-day.org You can reach the person managing the list at sfd-discuss-owner(a)sf-day.org When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of SFD-discuss digest..."
