So cool! An! let us know how it work and we can definitely adapt the same concept in China or other country :) For us, here we will host the SFD in Shantou University by Linux Association on September 19, Sunday (change of date due to Nanking Massacre). The whole afternoon, we plan to have exhibitions in outdoor area to demonstrate different free software like openoffice.org, GIMP, Inkscape, Blender... and GNU/Linux systems like Debian, OpenSuse, Ubuntu, Federo...... In the evening, we will have 4-5 presentations in a hall. Fred and I will be speaking of course~ Happy SFD preparation ^^ Pockey On 09/09/2010 08:04 PM, An Nguyen wrote: > Wish us all a happy SFD!!

Feel free to send me some details about the web conference hookup if you get a chance. Our network connection at our venue may be a might slow, but I've got a 3G wireless modem and a web cam. I'd be happy to play too! Cheers and Happy SFD Vietnam!!

Wish us all a happy SFD!! All the best from Saigon, Vietnam. There will be 2 SFD in Vietnam this year, one in our capital Hanoi and another one (which is mine :D) in Saigon, our biggest city. And the coolest thing is... we're gonna organize a visioconférence between Hanoi and Saigon!!! If that idea works out, we may contact other teams in nearby countries such as China, Singapore, Thailand, etc. for SFD next year... Anyway, good luck to us all!!! An Nguyen from SaigonLUG, Vietnam. @Fred, Pockey: Thank you very much! You are doing a great job with SFI team!! See ya! ;-) @C David Rigby: Good luck wih Singapore SFD, All the best from the FOSS buddies in Vietnam. :-D

Tomorrow (Friday, 10 Sept) is a national holiday for Hari Raya Puasa. We'll be taking a bit of a breather, then back to work on Saturday for the final week before the event. Our web site is coming along nicely, but we would like to spruce it up a bit in the next day or two. You can take a look at it here: http://softwarefreedomday.sg We plan to adapt some of the graphics from the SFD site and modify them to give us a more colorful banner. We also hope to add more exhibits. Right now we have 10 exhibitors, and we hope to get close to our limit of 20 by next week. I'm happy to receive any feedback from you about the site or the event. Here's wishing you all a fun and fulfilling SFD 2010! Regards David Rigby

Re: [SFD-discuss] CD arrived - need to pay excise duty- confused

by Prinson

Hi friends, Finally I got my CD Package without paying any money: I dont know what happend, but earlier i had told the courier guys that you have to deliver me the CD- it is for educational purpose not for any commercial use. Apparently they made some correspondence with their head office also, and finally gave me the CD package without making me pay any money Glad about that Wishes to everyone who are preparing for the Big Day ! prinson http://sfd2009.fireflies.in On 21 August 2010 05:22, A.
