This announcement mentions only open source, not free software.  A
person learning about GNOME from this announcement would think it is a
supporter of the open source camp.  Nothing in the announcement would
inform the person that the free software movement exists and that
GNOME is connected with it.

This means that an important opportunity to make people aware
of the free software movement is being lost.

It is not too late to take advantage of the opportunity.  This call
for papers can be corrected.  (There are other errors, so it needs
correction anyway.)  And there will surely be many more opportunities
for publicity about this joint event -- some through the Internet,
some in magazines, some in posters, then handouts and signs at the
event itself.

Can you put me in touch with the people who are running the GNOME.Asia
2010 event?
