	[I should probably post a detailed report in both Russian and
	English on our Web site, but just for now, I'm posting it to the
	mailing lists.]

    What we've done?

	• We've discussed the event a bit, both face to face, and via
	  the local LUG forum, e. g.:

http://altlug.ru/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=55&t=5350

	• We've agreed on four computer-related reports at our event!

	• We've got a Web site (http://sfd.am-1.org/) and a mailing list
	  for our event (sfd-discuss at sfd.am-1.org; not to be confused
	  with /The/ SFD-discuss) running!

	• We've also got QR-codes for the respective URI's
	  (http://sfd.am-1.org/img/), but I'm not sure whether those
	  will be used.

	• We've corresponded to one of the local computer-related
	  magazines and they're going to publish a pointer to our event!

	• We've got some CD's and images with some GNU/Linux
	  distributions.  (Thanks again for 20 × Ubuntu 10.4 CD's!)

	• We've agreed that we'll have about 30 copies of our event's
	  poster or so, to be placed at all the local universities, and
	  probably some schools.  (The poster design is still in
	  progress.  Should be ready next Monday.)

	• We're also going to have some small (10 cm × 7.5 cm = 4" × 3"
	  or so) give-aways pointing to our event.  (Still in progress.)

    What we've not.

	• In order to estimate the number of participants and to know
	  the interests of the public better, we've started a
	  (completely optional) registration.  Unfortunately, there
	  weren't too much people registered so far.

	• There's still some uncertainty regarding the equipment and
	  software that will be available at the display room.

	• I still hope to come up with a suitable FreeDOS kit, in order
	  to show the folks that Free Software comes in all the sizes!

	(Re. the last one: I've found the EGAint game for DOS, developed
	in 1989, and, well, it comes under GNU GPL v1!  Unfortunately, a
	quick Google scan didn't reveal its home page or sources.)
