2008.09.20我们放飞自由
9月20日,我们这些热爱自由、开源的传道士聚会在北京东直门ThoughtWorks宽敞的办公区,一起享受了整整一个下午的美好时光——北京软件自由日(Beijing SFD)。此次活动人气超旺,从中午11时就有朋友来到会场,并且不少朋友都自觉地做起了志愿者,帮助组织者拍照、签到、维持大厅秩序。在此代表组织者对热情的志愿者和协作社区表示诚挚的感谢。
特别感谢
特别感谢本次SFD活动的发起者Beijing Linux User Group(BLUG),他们在组织、协调、参与活动等工作上投入了前所未有的热情,当然还要他们提供的彩色气球、OpenCD等礼物。BLUG成员还为 活动贡献了很多精彩Topics:Martin Bähr、Jacob Redding、Ollo、Emily、Ray等。
同时这次成功的举办了离不开志愿者的卓越贡献和Sponsors的大力支持:

富有创造力的活动管理方式
“Mingle-enabled Topic Manager”:非常感谢Tin和钱钱同学的努力,这次活动的Topic卡片采用了Mingle软件来管理。Mingle是用于敏捷团队和项目管理的开源软件。使用Mingle管理Topic,这样既直观地展现Topic和场地、时间安排,又方便管理Speaker和活动历史数据。
“小巧”风格再次成为领先
本次活动Ollo带来了一个神秘的大纸箱,当他打开这个“潘多拉”时,真像大白了——龙芯袖珍PC是也!别看它身材短小,可稳定运行Linux系统一点也不含糊啊!
当然还有Martin拿来给大家使用的OLPC,吸引了很多朋友围观试用,真没想到小小的OLPC居然能使用脚本语言开发游戏。
