Software dreedom day posterThank you Thank you Thank you to all the volunteers who helped make Software Freedom Day 2009 such a great day! And a very big thank you to the Victorian Government for supporting us once again and making it possible to give away thousands of CDs and DVDs to the public!

If you got a CD or DVD and would like to know more about using Free and Open Source Software then come along to our Workshops in The Hub @ Docklands! See http://luv.asn.au/workshops for more details of where and when!


Software Freedom Day (SFD) is a global celebration of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and the community behind it. More than 500 teams in 150 different countries are organising events for their local communities. Every year since 2004, members of Linux Users of Victoria have taken to the streets of Melbourne and handed out CDs filled with great Free and Open Source Software.

This year LUV is hosting a series of talks at the Melbourne PC club rooms at Chadstone Shopping Centre. There will also be demonstrations, presentations and free balloons for the kids! And of course, lots of free software to take away. We'll have Fedora and Ubuntu LiveCDs, OpenDisc DVDs for Windows machines and OpenSourceMac CDs to give away.
