Countdown in Persian!
by Frederic Muller - DFI July 6, 2012

July 6, 2012

Hello all I would like to thank Bersam Karbasion and his team for doing the Persian version of the SFD countdown. You'll notice that they even went with an improved design over the standard SFD countdown one. Be aware though that the banner size is different for this countdown (message definitely intended to Julian). So if you're somewhere in Iran where we have 5 teams registered (UTC+3:30/GMT+3:30) the countdown code will be: <a href="http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/"><img src="http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/countdown/banner1-UTC+3.30-fa.png" border="0" width="160" height="160" alt="۱۵ سپتامبر، منتظر شما هستیم"></a> Happy SFD to all! Fred

July 4, 2012

Hello all I would like to thank Stathis Iosifidis for doing the Greek version of the SFD countdown this year (and all this while preparing for his upcoming exams). So if you're in Athens, Greece (UTC+3 as Greece is in daylight saving time) the countdown code will be: <a href="http://www.softwarefreedomday.org"><img src="http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/countdown/banner1-UTC+3-el.png" border="0" width="165" height="95" alt="Γιορτάστε μαζί μας την SFD στις 15 Σεπτεμβρίου!"></a> Greece has already 2 teams fully registered and a 3rd one should register soon as well as we have been exchanging emails. Happy SFD to all! Fred

Dear all, We just wanted to inform you that so far we have received three excellent proposals for the summit to which we have sent a receipt acknowledgment (an email saying we received your proposal). Should you not have received any such email, it probably means we haven't received your proposal. In such case please try to contact me directly or through this mailing list. Thank you. Fred

Is this something we should keep for people who have bandwidth issue or not? Please give us your feedback as it will help to decide if we keep it or not. Thanks. Fred

sfd countdown scripting
by Frederic Muller - DFI June 23, 2012

June 23, 2012

hi all! I do remember someone provided a script to automatically generate the xx necessary png out of the svg source file. I didn't pay much attention to it last year as I already did the language I knew and there was a slight bug in rendering. Now doing it for a second year I realize that all the translations need to be redone because the text is 'inside' those PNG files. It would be a lot more efficient to translate once and be able to regenerate those png regardless of the design. So could someone either point me to that script I can't seem to find, or the script author himself so we could try to work out a more efficient solution? Thanks again. Fred

It makes now 5 languages in total (Catalan, English, French, German and Simp. Chinese). Full details here: http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/CountDown/zh_CN Continued happy preparations to all.
