However, talks are in German only for both Kielux events, so I'm assuming people who want to watch these will be from the CEST time zone anyway.

Re: Software Freedom Day - virtual event options

Each local team is welcome to change the day of the event if it conflicts with other commitments. Some teams will be celebrating on other days leading up to or just after the 16th.

SFD countdown

by LM

We're at 13 days and counting until Software Freedom Day, the 20th edition. Just a reminder to include the timezone when you advertise or let people know about your Software Freedom Day events. A few years ago, I forgot to add the timezone and had people tuning it at the appointed time but for their timezones. So, they came too early or missed things. Since we're worldwide, people anywhere in the world could see information about your event, but they may not remember to adjust for the time difference between their location and yours. I've seen mentions for events that look like they'll be really great including these: https://sfd.nosk.org.np/ http://tiny.cc/sfd23 https://kielux.de/p/KOLT23 Feel free to post about your own events on this mailing list. We'd be happy to mention them on the Digital Freedom Foundation's social media accounts. Hope everyone has a wonderful Software Freedom Day next week.

I'm pretty sure debconf is also celebrating software freedom! A big shout-out to the Debian community for creating the grandfather of a lot of distros, while being as vivid and lean as most of its offspring! Nextcloud also has its big event the 16th. So same goes there: kudos for creating the privacy respecting alternative to the big cloud suites. Wishing the both of you a great celebration! You'll be missed, but both project will certainly be present all over the place.

Software Freedom Day - virtual event options

by LM

We're at 16 days and counting until Software Freedom Day, the 20th edition. We're up to 24 teams! Unfortunately, there are a couple of continents we haven't covered this year and I do know of people in those areas who would love to attend an event. If there's a virtual part to your Software Freedom Day celebration or you're hosting any hybrid events, please let me know. I'd like to pass the information on to people who can't attend a local SFD event. I'd need time and time zone, how to join and language of choice (human not programming). Would appreciate your help in finding events for those not fortunate enough to have one in their area. Also, would appreciate hearing if you or anyone you know is in North America and might want to get together either to attend or volunteer or help organize an event in that time zone. If you're having trouble finding a local SFD event, please post to this list as well and let us know. If you're considering a virtual or hybrid event, you can find some resources and software links on the Software Freedom Day's video conferencing page: https://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/VideoConferencing Thanks to everyone involved with Software Freedom Day this year.
