Software Freedom Day Event 2013
Software Freedom Day is a global, grassroots effort to educate the public about the virtues and availability of Free and Open Source Software. Local teams from all over the world are organising events on 21 September.
For this year's Software Freedom Day, our Hobart based team is showcasing some of the finest Free and Open Source Software that we can find. Specifically we'll be providing deonstrations on security your privacy online with Free Software and running a Free Software development session.
We will also be demonstrating several Free Software distributions that demonstrate software from the categories:
- # Media # Home/Business # Productivity # Games # Operating Systems.
The spirit of Free Software is community, and we feel that Software Freedom Day represents a way of building a stronger community both globally and locally.
Location: Chapel Room, New Sydney Hotel, Hobart
