IlugCalInfo: SFD Event Update

by Mani A

We have already received our team supplies. (IlugCalInfo is the Kolkata Team) This time we will be having technical sessions and a short install FEST in collaboration with CSI. Speakers interested in slightly advanced topics can still contact me with relevant information. The event will be held after the 20th of September, due to clash of dates. Thanks and Best A.

We have incoming links to our Software Freedom Day page, market it and want the 'link love' to go to Software Freedom Day sponsors and contributors - not to dicy/weird Linux User Groups called the name of a country/province. I have removed all references to other teams and events, hopefully the confusion is now resolved so that urges to edit our page will go away :) andre

Need Consult on Glug Wiki Page.

by Ludolph

Hi Sorry to drag this sorrow affair on to the mailing list but I need a consult from other SFD volunteers regarding the glug wiki page http://softwarefreedomday.org/teams/glug What happened is I "tablelized" the information on the page to make it easier to read but it was reverted to the old layout and then after a minute or two the table was back but without some information I added http://softwarefreedomday.org/teams/glug?action=diff&rev2=94&rev1=92 This behaviour do feel destructive and if the person would please raise his concerns on the added information here it would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise I'm going to revert it back to my changes because I don't see anything wrong with it. But I do believe it will turn into a edit war and I don't have time for that. What do you guys think? Kind Regards,

SFD T-shirts @ SFD store

by Frederic Muller

Dear all, I can see all pre-registered teams are starting to receive both SFD team pack and Ubuntu CDs. We've been receiving a few orders on our store (for extra T-shirts) the last 2 days and I wanted to remind everyone who is interested to get some extra T-shirts that they should order them before the end of the week in order to be sure to receive them for your events. We definitely appreciate your financial contributions to support Software Freedom International and the time and money you put in on your own events to make Software Freedom Day what it has become today! The store address is http://sfd.openfreeway.org/ and you can also find 2008 T-shirts for discounted price as collectors (I liked the orange color). Thanks a lot and all the best for your preparations. Fred Vice President, SFI
