Hi freedom lovers,
The organizers of this year's FSCONS[0], hosted in Gothenburg Sweden, earlier this week announced[1] that it will host an OpenMoko code sprint. The details posted[2] says that the goal of the sprint is to work on an application called voj (see the site for details) but also to just shed light on the project and answer questions for any of those not familiar to the OpenMoko project. I'm one of those that will be at the site and try to get as many as possible to throw their Nokias, SE:s and Motorolas out the window and instead decide they choose freedom and OpenMoko over ... some bad words regarding their current locked in phones. :) I'm glad this takes place in my hometown and I urge anyone that has the possibility to take part to either visit the conference which I feel is truly "one a kind", or by joining the mailing list at http://mail.fscons.org/mailman/listinfo or jump in on irc://irc.freenode.net/fscons and say hi. Hopefully we'll get the media present interested enough to run a story on how open source collaboration can look like (Agile, very close to it's users and leveraging functionality actually requested by real users and not some developer apartment). Apologies if you consider this being spam. I hope to see you at the conference! / Fredrik Wendt [0] http://fscons.org/ October 24th - 26th @ IT University Gothenburg [1] http://fscons.org/2008/10/07/openmoko-code-sprint/ [2] http://fscons.org/openmoko-codesprint/ PS. Briefly on FSCONS: As three of the biggest names in community organisations, Free Software Foundation Europe, Creative Commons and Wikimedia Sverige are joining forces under the banner of Free Society at this years FSCONS. With the help of many different organisations like Debian GNU/linux, KDE, Postgres, OpenStreetMap, Midgard, CCMixter, Magnatune and the Icelandic Fab Labs, FSCONS will be a truly unique experience.
