Hi there, https://www.documentfreedom.org currently claims that DFD 2022 is going to be on March 30 (in one week), but the event registration link is pointing to the wrong place, the list of events points to the map site (only ready for 2018 and previous years). If there is interest in having this event being celebrated this year, I'd suggest (since we're so close to the date) just removing the obsolete links from the website, and instead point directly to the wiki ( https://wiki.documentfreedom.org/2022 could be created). If there's interest on this, I can submit pull requests changing the website's code as long as it is made available; and I'm also volunteering to create and manage the necessary wiki pages, from now until and during the day. If there is interest just for the wiki part (for eg. no easy way to share the website code), I can also go ahead and do it, but I'd rather have some feedback on this here, first.

If you ask me, yes. my first IM is Matrix. Even for two of the events in which I was involved, whole communication took place in Matrix. Those other programs which were conducted in telegram were organized by others yet one of them made it possible to be in the program through Jitsi. Maybe not a bad idea to share that Gnu Meetup even was streamed to 4 different platform: Peertube, Twitch, Youtube and Aparat (an Iranian video sharing platform) and surprisingly peertube performed the best! Long story short, where ever I was involved, the event was made fully based on Free Software solutions. Videos are also shared on peertube. -- Regards, Mostafa Ahangarha

By "telegram", do you mean the Telegram instant messenger? Have you considered switching to an actually free, decentralized and secure instant messaging network like (ideally) XMPP, or, failing that, Matrix? Telegram has a centralized, proprietary server and does not even feature usable end-to-end encryption by default. Kind regards, Jorge -- - Many people hate injustice but few check the facts.

SFD2021 in Iran report

by Mostafa Ahangarha

Hi everyone, Happy Software Freedom Day again I am pleased to inform the world community that we in Iran managed to conduct 5 online events. The first one was organized by people in Mashhad city and funded and supported by some companies and organizations. Next was Gnu Meetup special event for SFD with 6 non technical talks addressing different issues related to significance of Software Freedom in today Iran. Organizers of this even, released a statement addressing people, free software community and government. There were two other events organized by Blender House in Iran and also a telegram based community of front-end developers called Front Chapter in which people discussed the impact of free software in shaping the web. And finally, the last event was organized yesterday by Azad-on focusing on contribution. Like last year, Azad-on tried to inform people that having share in a freer future in computation doens't necessarily require programming knowledge. The event encouraged people to provide non-technical contribution to OpenStreetMap, Mozilla Common Voices and software/documentation translations. After long time, we could achieve daily goal on Common Voice project for Persian language (1200 voice record and 2400 verification). I am happy that this year, we had multiple groups organizing small but independent events for SFD rather waiting for a big and grand event, addressing small number of geeks. I hope this experience could have some share in breaking the malformed imagination of so called Free Software Community in Iran around the way of celebrating Software Freedom Day. -- Regards, Mostafa Ahangarha

SFD Parana, AR

by Chino Soliard

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 I want to inform that we quicky "organized" Software Freedom Day. It is going to be online (via Telegram stream) in about 3 hours -and- for 3 hours. (15:·30 - 18:30 ART) We do not have an agenda confirmed. 3 talks confirmed, but the idea is to discuss with the asistants about FLOSS matters. Most of the assistans are university students. The main reason for doing it on this way is to engage people for the next edition. We always talked about SFD, but never organized one. -- Chino Soliard -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: ProtonMail wsBzBAEBCAAnBQJhRgb4CRBEsRm9Te2I0xYhBNFADNta0gkQdwRZvUSxGb1N 7YjTAAA8UggAutZ6cw5oAm8TOfjxdFKPwIjq9dPVUJZVge/j3fkyFRsL9CiX JB+2G7W2z3g9YetrP6LhUha2BdhDCuhsb8yuPg2grEe0DoOs8h9IjaaujT9y h/G0iopPw51vBg+BtKf0csHaYDvuqIJMbs84MRaEm58BrRqJLAoI8g62Vys3 eq4uUfKx2OCWm/dE/cjeUnDdP0Nd1S2y4pebEjq5FfBp+9/2C6IqDFGiLsN+ EErVjMk3Aef4pNJEScK2GrKr1QqpTGR/Myl44Li5Hg/UE/YKy2+OiW0kK+9l HA+VAeGKJkD4xN12AlhweqWzZgPIMYbOqOwYnBzT1e+PQTA0r9B/tg== =9G2a -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
