Hello Marc,
and other people interested in the Software Freedom Day '2011)

I will probably organize a SFD2011 meeting in Oostend, but everybody can organize a team in his location and an event on 17/09/2011.

If you are interested in organizing an event, I suggest you first to look for local support from associations interested in vulgarization of ICT and develop contacts. Starting effectively a project in the summer 2011 seems to me the right time.

Software Freedom Day 2010 (SFD2010) has been celebrated in Ostend (public library Kris Lambert) on 18/09/2010.

The event was the result of the cooperation between Zandletters.be and Ubuntu-be (4 volunteers in the morning, 5 in the afternoon).

From 10.30 to 15.00 hr., 4 sessions were organized, including presentation of SFD and FOSS, and 3 workshops focused on Office, Internet and Multimedia applications.

Approximately 50 interested persons attended the event. Most of questions were about OpenOffice, compatibility with MS Office formats, Ubuntu, dual-boot and virtualization.

All conversations stressed the need for more information about FOSS and alternatives like OpenOffice and Ubuntu, but in a way that "normal" users can understand.

Pictures are in the wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/SoftwareFreedomDay2010 .

Software Freedom Day 2011 will be organized on 17/09/2011.
