How great is this day going to be.... Melbourne's going crazy... we're rocking this city and waking people up to what's possible with FOSS! Donna Benjamin had an interview on ABC radio this morning and has another one scheduled on Sunday, Pia Waugh's calling in to the interview as well. We've got Senator Kate Lundy coming down to speak about Gov2.0 (BIG THANKS TO PIA), Rami Olwan from Creative Commons, an Android developer to show people how to make mobile phone apps, somebody setting up a home studio plus plus plus... we are ready and really looking forward to it. Here are two of the interviews: http://www.cpod.org.au/download.php?id=4432 http://blogs.abc.net.au/files/software-freedom-day.mp3 Will be great to connect with other cities on the day.

It's really nice to hear from you. So how are you doing with your conquest towards the north? I remember last time even had plans to come over and rule Beijing? ;-)
I think having a FOSS solution and be able to deploy visio conference between nearby events would be cool. We've been thinking of doing pre-recorded greeting messages as well, but I'm really not sure what to say. maybe next year as well.
Are you still in touch with progfou (Jean-Christophe) from Hanoi LUG? He was pretty motived as well.
Pia (former SFI president) has some nice videos on youtube I was told. Unfortunately we poor Chinese souls cannot view them...
Happy SFD to both teams!

Wish us all a happy SFD!! All the best from Saigon, Vietnam.
There will be 2 SFD in Vietnam this year, one in our capital Hanoi and another one (which is mine :D) in Saigon, our biggest city. And the coolest thing is... we're gonna organize a visioconférence between Hanoi and Saigon!!! If that idea works out, we may contact other teams in nearby countries such as China, Singapore, Thailand, etc. for SFD next year...
Anyway, good luck to us all!!! An Nguyen from SaigonLUG, Vietnam.
@Fred, Pockey: Thank you very much! You are doing a great job with SFI team!! See ya! ;-)
@C David Rigby: Good luck wih Singapore SFD, All the best from the FOSS buddies in Vietnam. :-D
