I was recently notified by the organizer, Larry C., of Lindependence 2008. According to Larry,

"Lindependence 2008 introduces Linux to the town of Felton, California -- about 6,000 people who live at the foot of the San Lorenzo Valley in Santa Cruz County, California. The plan behind Lindependence 2008 involves assisting those wishing to participate to go "proprietary free" for an entire week -- starting on [USA] Independence Day 2008 -- using their choice of distro and FOSS programs."

How is OOo relevant?

"-- Give OpenOffice.org a presence: We invite OpenOffice.org to have representatives at the meetings and installfests with software and other materials, as well as to stick around for the week to see how this develops. If some of you are based at Sun, you're just "over the hill" in the Silicon Valley. But we are looking to have people from the OOo user group available to show people how to use OpenOffice and to be around for help during the week of July 4-11."

As well, we can help donate to the effort.

If people want to participate, let me know. I don't have a URL for this event.

Best,
Louis
