Dear all,

We've finally put up a countdown banner (190x200) to SFD. Currently only
in English but we have the abilities to translate it as well.

Since the event is global we have made one banner per existing time zone
on planet Earth (we're thinking bigger for next year and maybe Mars and
Neptune support...).

So for example if you're using the current English banner and are
located in the UK, you'll be at UTC+1 . The banner direct link for you
will therefore be:
http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/countdown/banner1-UTC+1-en.png

and the code to include in your site:
<a href="http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/"><img
src="http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/countdown/banner1-UTC+1-en.png"
border="0" width="190" height="200" alt="Celebrate SFD with us on
September 17!"></a>

List of supported timezones is here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_time_zones_by_UTC_offset

Full documentation and source files can be found here:

Should people want to help localize there are already Portuguese and
German on the way, you can probably help finish those 2.

Any question please let us know.

We'll let the weekend pass, see what other languages we get done and
then official announce the counter, with a nicely design page to
integrate in the www website.

Should you want to use a totally different design, we'll need to modify
the script as there is a language symmetry in the current script which
will need to be changed.

Any question, please ask!

Thanks and happy SFD preparations!

Fred
