UBUNTU: Software Freedom Day, Sept. 18, 2010

[Paul Bartell]

Allright. Lets do some planning  for this event next year though.
Start generating ideas of what, where, and how. This event was a lot
of fun the year we did it, but It had limited impact if any.. Pike
Place mainly had tourists, not seattlites.
