Software Freedom Day this Saturday!
I know there are literally hundreds of OSUM leaders out there who have been working hard the past few weeks to get ready for Software Freedom Day 2009, this Saturday, September 19.
Thanks to the hard-working OSUM folks, Sun's network connected more than 25,000 students for local SFD events in 30 countries! The SFD events have been designed to highlight the importance and benefits of open source technologies. At each event, students will have the opportunity to hear from open source experts from local universities, and participate in installation demonstrations, all while networking with other students, professors, and developers who are passionate about free and open source technologies.
If you haven't found an event, check this map to find out whether or not there is SFD party being held in your area! Also, check out the OSUM Software Freedom Day 2009 group or SoftwareFreedomDay.org for more information.
And OSUM leaders, don't be shy about sharing your success stories after the event! I am most looking forward to seeing pictures of the hundreds of install fests that take place during SFD.
Happy Software Freedom Day!
