Amicalement, Wassim <div class="gmail_quote"> ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Frederic Muller - SFI <<a href="mailto:fred@softwarefreedomday.org">fred@softwarefreedomday.org</a>> Date: 2012/6/15 Subject: [SFD-announce] Software Freedom Day 2011 Best Event Competition result announcement To: SFD announcements <<a href="mailto:sfd-announce@sf-day.org">sfd-announce@sf-day.org</a>>, "Discussions about planning for SFD (english)" <<a href="mailto:planning-en@sf-day.org">planning-en@sf-day.org</a>> Hudson, New Hampshire (June 15, 2011) - Digital Freedom International is one more time very proud to announce the SFD 2011 best event competition results. Software Freedom Day (SFD) is a worldwide celebration of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) with the goal of educating the public about the existence and the benefits of using FOSS in education, in government, at home and in business. The SFD Best Event Competition is an international recognition of the efforts made by individual organizing teams in regards to spreading the importance of Software Freedom and reaching out to the relevant groups of people in their area. Each year three teams are chosen and the awards given to those teams are meant to help them further in their tasks for the years to come. This year again, two leading organizations from the Free and Open Source Software movements have joined us to reward those exceptional achievers: the Free Software Foundation, the non-profit organization behind the Free Software movement, and Lemote, a private company making PCs running only Free Software from the BIOS to the drivers and the operating system as well. Among the 50 submissions we have received the three teams that came out as outstanding organizers and promoters of Software Freedom in 2011 will be known by some of you for having organized SFD in the past (and some even won that same competition in the past). We would like to name in no specific order: * SFD team 8layertech, Philippines * SFD team CP-Union, Philippines * SFD team IEEE ENIS Student Branch, Tunisia As a general comment we were very pleased to see a higher quality of most events participating in the competition and would also like to mention some entries which didn't make it in the top 3 but definitely deserve to be mentioned: * Palestine Software Freedom Day * Bluepoint Linux User Elite * Algeria Software Freedom Day Congratulations to all! Full details available here: <a href="http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/en/competition/winners-2011" target="_blank">http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/en/competition/winners-2011</a> The above teams should be an inspiration to all SFD organizers and help you to prepare for SFD 2012 which will happen on Saturday September 15th this year.
