We are writing to ask you to join us in celebrating Software Freedom Day in 2004 and 
beyond.

In an effort to step up the marketing effort for Free and Open Source Software (FOSS), 
a small group of us have formed <a 
href="softwarefreedomday.org">softwarefreedomday.org</a> with the aim of organizing a 
global celebration of FOSS on August 28th this year. We will be handing out printed 
materials and CDs with good quality FOSS, like TheOpenCD and Knoppix. We hope to 
involve a large number of teams, comprised of LUG members and other enthusiasts all 
around the world. Our role will be to help coordinate the event and provide the 
required infrastructure, including a web portal, posters and fliers, and most 
importantly, high quality (pressed) CDs that local teams can give out to the general 
public on Software Freedom Day.

Best wishes,
The SFD Team

We hope that you will be able to join us in organizing local events in your area and 
in developing these ideas further in the months to come. 

August may seem a long way off, but we have lots of work to do until then. Please stop 
by our website, softwarefreedomday.org, for more information and to share your ideas. 
If you would like to launch a team in your area, please place a note in our forum, so 
that others can find you and join up.

Best wishes,
The SFD Team
