Welcome to Software Freedom Day Online!


**The first annual Software Freedom Day will be held on August 28, 2004**


The Software Freedom Day initiative intends to make the world aware of the
existence, availability, and high quality of Free and Open Source Software
(FOSS), and to encourage its use by as many people as possible. It will be a
global grassroots marketing campaign in which we are inviting volunteers from
around the world to participate. We intend to give away informational fliers
and CDs with selected FOSS, such as TheOpenCD or Knoppix, in public places on
SFD. It will be up to the individual teams to chose how they wish to organize
the PR effort locally, but we will assist with bulk production of posters,
T-shirts, CDs and whatever else will be required. We will be asking for
Sponsors to donate money and material goods and services to our effort, and
will be inviting FOSS advocacy groups around the world to become our partners
in this event. We hope you will join us too!

"We are not for names, nor men, nor titles of Government, nor are we for
this party nor against the other but we are for justice and mercy and
truth and peace and true freedom, that these may be exalted in our nation,
and that goodness, righteousness, meekness, temperance, peace and unity
with God, and with one another, that these things may abound."
(Edward Burroughs, 1659 - from 'Quaker Faith and Practice')
