Auckland Software Freedom Drove
The Name
We needed a team name - I had put down Auckland SFD - and promptly got told to go think up a team name. So in keeping with the original name, I just needed a word, meaning "group" that starts with a "D" so I went looking for animal groups names (you know the ones - things like a gander of geese and a murder or crows). The one that fit seemed to be a drove of asses. The only other option was a drift of bees.
Our Plans
Software Freedom Day in Auckland has always been a bit more... lose in definition. We've taken a very liberal view and do a SFD weekend instead.
So on Friday, there's a gaming night at Albany Senior High School. Details to come.
On Saturday, we're just about to book a venue (it's been donated though there are still some costs involved). None of these are confirmed just yet but:
- Installfest
RepRap demo
Usual array of stalls (RedHat, OpenSuse, Open Office etc.)
- Frets of Fire stage
- cd handout (Linux distributions as well as FLOSS software for Windows).
