Re: [SFD-discuss] Stuff not yet received

by Frederic Muller

Dear Richard, I can only check for SFD schwag and not Ubuntu CDs. Those 2 are the same team in the document I received and from the registration it's your email address that has been used for Austin Njaya's registration. Now to the bad news: the forwarder has failed to ship your shwag (and the other 4 registered teams in Zimbabwe) so you will not be getting anything before September 20th. I must apologize for this. We are now negotiating how to get you the stuff so you can at least have an 'after SFD' party with balloons, stickers and t-shirts. Really sorry for the inconvenience, I hope this will not hinder your preparation work and you will still manage to have a great Saturday as all of us will.

BBC World Service Click Program

by Cat Scratch

Hi everyone, Some of you may know that the BBC runs a program called Click on it's World News Service... They have a contact form... would be great for teams to contact them with what they are doing... we may not get coverage before the event - but perhaps it will be of interest to the BBC for a follow up story? http://www.bbcworldnews.com/Pages/ContactProgramme.aspx?id=18 cheers Donna -- Software Freedom Day 2008 http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/melb A world wide celebration of Free and Open Source Software Melbourne event at The Hub@Docklands and the community behind it. 11am - 4pm, Saturday 20 September

Re: [SFD-discuss] Packages not received yet

morning guys! If you use a different name to ask for your package it makes it impossible for me to find it. Now I did find your team under this new name but it seems there has been a delivery problem (from the tracking information). Let me clarify this with the delivery company and get back to you.
