Software Freedom Day @ Alexandria University

As this is the most recent activity in my Technical life, I decided to start with talking about it. "Software Freedom Day 2009" or SFD09, I heard about this event about two weeks ago. I had no clue about what it is, who do it or anything about it. As it became one of my duties, as ACM Chapter Officer and OSUM Club Organizer, to hold this day on our campus, I start searching for a while about it. And here is what I discovered: Software Freedom Day is an international day to celebrate free software and open source community. It is been celebrated by organizing sessions, contests and even parties!! Its main target is to encourage more people to use free software and be happy while doing it. As the team I am working with on organizing this event always seeks for the best, and we are always looking to be different, SFD09 is no longer one day on our campus!! It is two weeks full of sessions, demos, contest and the most important: knowledge and entertainment. For more information about SFD09 @ Alexandria University, check the following links: Software Freedom Day @ Alexandria University-Wiki Page Software Freedom Day @ Alexandria University- OSUM Club If you are near Alexandria from 1st Sept to 15th Sept, don’t forget to RSVP our event on Facebook: Facebook Event I will regularly post the newest news about our SFD on our campus. So, keep checking my blog. Hope to see all there.
