Software Freedom Day: supplies registration extended until Saturday!
Hi software freedom enthusiasts, Due to a rush of late registrations, and a bit of extra schwag* that we got hold of, registration to receive supplies for Software Freedom Day has been extended until 23:59 UTC on Saturday 19 July. That means that teams that if your team is registered before that time, you'll be getting T-shirts, balloons, stickers, CDs and a few other goodies to spice up your Software Freedom Day celebration. You can register a team by visiting http://cgi.softwarefreedomday.org/register.html and filling in the registration form. You'll need to read the instructions at http://softwarefreedomday.org/StartGuide, and you'll also need to create a wikipage on our site for your team. Please go and check out the map of registered teams ( http://cgi.softwarefreedomday.org/map.shtml) - see if you can fill in the blanks on the map by forwarding this email to friends, colleagues, fellow software freedom enthusiasts and community mailing lists in those countries! This deadline extension is only available while our schwag stocks last - if we run out, you're still welcome to register your team to be part of SFD but you won't be offered team supplies. Sorry, it's not our fault: shipping supplies to almost 100 countries requires us to set a firm shipping deadline. And for those who haven't participated in SFD before: Software Freedom Day is a worldwide celebration of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS), taking place this year on Saturday 20 September 2008. Our goal in this celebration is to educate the worldwide public about of the benefits of using high quality FOSS in education, in government, at home, and in business -- in short, everywhere! The non-profit company Software Freedom International * <http://softwarefreedomday.org/sfi>*coordinates SFD at a global level, providing support, giveaways and a point of collaboration, but volunteer teams around the world organize the local SFD events to impact their own communities. Good luck with preparations for your SFD! Robert Board member, Software Freedom International * Schwag (for those unfamilar with the term) is "team supplies", like stickers, balloons and badges!

Hi, When I registered http://softwarefreedomday.org/teams/europe/uk/Manchester I didn't put our group down for schwag, because I wasn't sure we were going to get something off the ground. Now I'm sure that we'll have something to promote free software in Manchester, but I don't seem to be able to change my mind about the supplies now. Any idea how I can do this?

There are two ways to do this: 1. Register again, filling in all the information. Once you've re-registered, send me an email and I'll remove your first registration from the system. 2. Send me an email with all the required information (visit the registration page http://cgi.softwarefreedomday.org/register.html to see what information is required). The required information concerns what schwag you'd like, and your mailing address/phone number. Robert. On Tue, Jul 15, 2008 at 11:49 PM, Dave Page <grimoire@cultofperf.org.uk> wrote:
