Greetings GNU/Linux users,

Software Freedom Day - Saturday 21 September 2013

10am to 4pm at South Christchurch Learning Centre, http://www.library.christchurch.org.nz/South/

A global celebration and promotion of Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS), inaugurated in 2004.

Ten days out, it was decided last night to proceed with a Software Freedom Day event in Christchurch again this year - ten years since we were the first New Zealand team to do so. As then, this year our city stands alone now with an SFD event registered, although there has been lots of North Island participation in between.

The GNUz monthly workshops have maintained an organisational shell, of meeting bookings in a quality library facility, that the local FOSS community can populate as it wishes.

So that's an invite to bring all your ideas, energy and enthusiasm along on 21 Sept, plus any hardware you'd like to demonstrate with. Overhead projector onsite + wireless internet, a suite of cd/dvd-bootable i5's (working on thumbdrive-booting), kitchen and toilets.

Draft poster/flier content - amend & circulate as you see fit - http://www.infohelp.co.nz/sfd13.html

Advertising help needed.

Discussion and planning is directed to this mail list please, so not to affect the CLUG list: http://lists.ourshack.com/mailman/listinfo/gnuz

We trust that you will enjoy Software Freedom Day too.

Thank you for your time.

Regards

Rik
