[us-marketing] Planning ahead: Software Freedom Day is right before the LibreOffice Annual Conference

[Robinson Tryon]

Hi all,

I'm sure you're all getting started on your plans for Document Freedom
Day (DFD), as it's just a month away (I'll have more on that later),
but I wanted to touch base briefly re Software Freedom Day (SFD).

Software Freedom Day is Sep 19th, and our Annual Conference starts on
Sep 23rd. For anyone travelling/preparing for the conference, these
two events are so close together that it might make it difficult to do
everything by yourself.

If you can, I suggest talking with your colleagues in Free Software in
your local area over the next few months (perhaps at the end of March,
after DFD events are done?) and working with them to get stuff prepare
ahead of time. In that fashion, you will hopefully be able to avoid a
mad scramble come September.

My method? I'm adding a reminder to my calendar for April 2nd. That
way I can ignore SFD until then.


Best,
--R
