Barnaul, Altai Krai, Russia

by Ivan Shmakov

We’ve had some 40 or so participants at the event, which is roughly the number gathered in 2010, and (I guess) twice as much as there was in both 2011 and 2012. There was a conference, which took perhaps a bit too long to complete, and we were also showing Sintel and Big Buck Bunny. Finally, there was a semi-serious contest on the knowledge of free software, with the open-source Arduino board being the winner’s prize. PS. I hope we’ll manage to bring one or more photos of our event to Wikicommons [1] (and thus under a free license!) shortly.

Re: [SFD-discuss] Revolution OS show at Software Freedom Day 2013

by murphnj

I did a showing of it once. I contacted the producer, and he allowed it as long as I donated all of the proceeds to charity. (EFF and FSF) That being said, it is copyrighted, and permission must be granted to do a showing. Also, as great as the documentary is, it is a bit dated. More time has passed since the documentary was filmed than the amount of time that it covers.

Art is nice, warm and cuddly. However I think there is enough material to be shown that focus on todays' threats and freedoms that we could review during the event. Here are some interesting 'viewing' material to remember: - Conference by Aaron Schwartz on SOPA (yes the boy that commit suicide because of prosecution by the US authorities for liberating public documents) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHF96KhsDPU - WikiRebels (Wikileaks) Documentary (not as new, but probably newer than Big Buck Bunny) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9xrO2Ch4Co - EFF's spokesperson John Perry Barlow Keynote http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srYYh1fyKqQ On 9/20/13, Ivan Shmakov <oneingray(a)gmail.com> wrote: >>>>>> Avinash Sonawane <rootkea(a)gmail.com> writes: > > > Just a quick doubt.
