Hi there -- This is new to me (because I'm new to FOSS), but I think celebrating this day is an outstanding idea. Thanks to all who are putting it together. I'm gathering from Janet's e-mail that we are allowed to burn our own CDs, but I'll ask just to be sure: Are we allowed, enabled, encouraged, etc., to assemble our own FOSS CDs to distribute at the event as well? Our "greatest hits" or "top 10" as it were? The reason I ask is that one of our organizers brought up having a 100% truly free (as in freedom, moreso than free beer) disk containing distros, like gNewSense, that do not include any proprietary software.

the openCD is a good set of software to give to people who are on windows and not looking to swap yet.
the linux distribution *you* know is probably a good one to burn. ubuntu is popular because it has a chunky desktop community but burning something you feel comfortable demoing is probably the best fit locally?
