Thank you for appreciating. And we hope the other teams will like it too.

Regarding the license, it will definitely be on creative commons but ill check out with my team mates which of the variants it will fall under.

BTW, is the team registration already open? We checked the site http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/en/participate/register-your-team and it seems not open yet?

You are right, it's not opened yet, but we are already preparing and producing the SFD goodies including SFD banners, t-shirts, stickers, balloons, tshirt labels and dvds. We target to ship them end of the month or early August.

The previous registration form has some bugs so Fred has been working very hard on a new script eventhough he is not a developer. Once this new script is finished, we won't struggle on the registration like the previous few years anymore!  We will open the registration in the coming week, please stay tuned!

Thanks!
Pockey


Best regards,

Deng

Hi Meric,

That's really cool! It's indeed a very nice song, have the spirit of celebrating SFD! The singing is very pro too! Thanks for sharing!

And we will definitely play it in all the SFD events in China and recommend it to all the other countries!

By the way, what's the license?  :-)

Cheers,
Pockey

Guys.

We just wish to share this song/music that we did in preparation for The SFD Celebration this year.
And yes we intend to use tune for our SFD Celebration here in the Philippines (sfdph2011). If at any rate, you find it useful or friendly to listen/use as well, feel free to use it for your SFD Celebration.

Here's the Lyrics of the Song.
Title: Celebrate Software Freedom Day

Let’s go out and celebrate
It’s the Software Freedom Day
(Chill out/ Cheer out)Yell out and participate
It’s the Software Freedom Day

Let everyone know there’s a software for(that’s) free
Free to use for you and me
Free to run and study
Modify, make copies
Save more money
It’s the Software Freedom Day

Let’s go out and celebrate
It’s the Software Freedom Day
(Chill out/ Cheer out) Yell out and participate
It’s the Software Freedom Day

Throughout the whole world
Sharing is a plenty
Hackers are smiling, knowledge a’flowing
Dance to the beat and feel the heat
Free and Open Software is Here to Stay.

Software Freedom Day

aha (2x)
Software Freedom Day.
