We had a grand SFD celebration in Kathmandu, Nepal with the slogan 'Linux for Desktops, let's make iT FOSSible'. It was jointly organized by High Level Commission for IT (HLCIT - www.hlcit.gov.np), the apex government body for IT in Nepal and FOSS Nepal Community (www.fossnepal.org): http://www.tuxolta.com/wiki/index.php?title=Software_Freedom_Day_2007 The talking point of our event was the prototype of Freedom Toaster. We demonstrated the Freedom Toaster with the use of mouse instead of touchscreen (which is planned to be done later with enough funds) due to budget constraint. More than 80 CD's were toasted with the demonstrated Freedom Toaster. Although we've already filled up the report form, we will have more detailed report for the competition with all the photos, descriptions and media coverage in the days to come. Cheers, Subir
