Lindependence 2008: July 28-August 4, 2008

Lindependence 2008 introduces the town of Felton, California, to Linux and FOSS programs so they can go "Microsoft free" for a week with the intention for most (if not all) of them to remain on the proverbial Linux side of the digital fence.

Throughout the month of July -- the first two meetings have been scheduled for Sunday, July 13 and Tuesday, July 15, "town meetings" and installfests will take place to familiarize those who wish to participate in the project, with the week of digital freedom starting on July 28. The first two meetings on the 13th and 15th will be held at the hall at the Felton Presbyterian Church, 6090 Highway 9, in Felton; the Sunday (7/13) event is from 3 to 7 p.m. and the Tuesday (7/15) event is from 6 to 10 p.m.

Updates on other meetings throughout July will be posted here.

Ubuntu's participation in this project would be a vital component, and members of the California Ubuntu LoCo are welcome and urged to participate in this project.

More information can be found here. For further information, contact Larry Cafiero of HeliOS Solutions West by e-mail at lcafiero-at-gmail.com or by calling 831-335-7303.

Software Freedom Day: Sept 10th 2005

SoftwareFreedomDay is an annual, global event intended to increase public awareness of Free and Open Source Software.

The first SFD was celebrated on August 28, 2004. Over 70 registered volunteer teams distributed several thousand "SFD Packs" in more than 20 countries around the world. Each SFD pack contained a copy of TheOpenCD and a SFD-branded version of KNOPPIX.

We're currently planning for SFD '05, and Ubuntu Live discs will be ideal for public distribution. SFD '05 has the potential to make a huge impact on the public awareness of FOSS, and it will be a great opportunity to increase Ubuntu mindshare as well. Here is how to get involved, and here is where you can sign up to start your own SFD team.

Please see the Software Freedom Day website for more information.
