[Ubuntu-be] Software Freedom Day 2010 in Ostend 18/09 - report

[jean7491]

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.
