[SFD-announce] Software Freedom Day 2009: registration is open!

[Robert Schumann]

Hi SFD'ers,

The season is open on registering for Software Freedom Day, which is
happening this year on 19 September 2009. Check on our
map<http://cgi.softwarefreedomday.org/2009/map.shtml>[1] to see if a
team is registered near you - otherwise get yours together
and register <http://cgi.softwarefreedomday.org/register.html> [2]! (Don't
forget that you need to make your team wiki page on
http://softwarefreedomday.org/teams before registering)

The first 200 teams registered *before Friday 10 July* will receive an SFD
team pack including three SFD 2009 T-shirts, Ubuntu CDs, and a few other
bits and pieces to support your day - we'll keep you posted on what's going
into the pack. As usual, these packs are sent to teams all over the world
with support from our sponsors: Canonical <http://www.ubuntu.com/> (the
folks who bring you Ubuntu), Google <http://code.google.com/> and
DKUUG<http://www.dkuug.dk/>(with additional help from
Linode <http://www.linode.com/>,
Zac-ware<http://www.zac-ware.com/products/freeway/>,
Linux Magazine <http://www.linux-magazine.com/> and FSF<http://www.fsf.org/>).

If you haven't taken part before, learn how to run a new event from our easy
to read StartGuide <http://softwarefreedomday.org/StartGuide> [3] - and if
you have any questions, just email info at sf-day.org.

Good luck with your SFD 2009 preparations, and don't forget to pass the
message around and get more teams involved. We had over 550 teams last year
and are anticipating over 700 this year!

Thank you for connecting, creating and sharing!

Robert
President, Software Freedom International
