SFD20 Event Report
* We significantly grew Software Freedom Day attendance on the previous two years, which had been absolute minimal.
* We combined the activities of two tech groups (one old, one new from 2020) to do this.
* We discussed and planned systems for increased ongoing activity, combined.
* We recognised the necessity to implement and focus on online conferencing capacity as a constant fixture, e.g. https://bigbluebutton.org & http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/VideoConferencing etc. (viz covid-19 limits).
* We acknowlegded the significance of MineCraft culture as recreational, educational and social connecting tool.
* We planned towards growing meetings and implementation of a HiTale culture to improve upon MineCraft, within two years, for SFD22: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hytale
Our ongoing meetings, weekly online and twice monthly in person, are listed here: ... & http://www.infohelp.co.nz/glu.html (first Wednesday night monthly) & https://www.meetup.com/Chchtech/events/ (third Saturday afternoon monthly).
We look forward to meeting you for/at SFD 2021! Do join us. Thanks.
