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

[jean7491]

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.
