A real SFD planet

by Frederic Muller - SFI

Dear all, While team packs are being packed and we're running after the few team leaders who provided us a PO Box instead of a street address we're also continuing improving our web infrastructure, providing better features or translations. A few members of our community have provided a lot of help this year and have helped us to achieve things we've been longing for years. One thing which has been discussed since end of last year was refactoring of the SFD Planet (previously on http://planet.softwarefreedomday.org) and providing additional languages. After fighting with the technical details and getting bits of translations here and there we are not very please to announce that the planet is fully integrate into our main website and that the language switcher at the top of the page allows to go from one planet to another one automatically. It also saves us a lot of work in maintenance as those pages template used to be manually generated. So to every SFD team leader out there, if you do have a blog and are not on SFD planet of your language please do send us your feed, an hackertgotchi or a photo of yourself (we'll do the hackergotchi for you). Also note that in order to start a new language we need at least 3 feeds and a bit of translation help. Thank you and happy preparation! Fred ps: oh and yes, the planet link is now : http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/en/community/sfd-planet rss feeds haven't changed

Hi everyone! In two days, we gained ~30 teams and reached almost 170 teams! We still have 3 days to get to 200 teams and ship the goodies. Let's continue the marketing by reaching the local communities within your network or in your country and spread SFD to more places!
