[Year 12 IT Apps] Software Freedom Day - Saturday 19th September

[Donna Benjamin]

Hi Everyone,

Software Freedom Day is once again just around the corner.
11am - 4pm, Saturday 19 September

This year the Melbourne event will be at Chadstone Shopping Centre!

I've attached our black and white flyers, along with the artwork from
our printed postcards. Would be great if you could all help spread the
word - and even better come along. We'll have stacks of software CDs and
DVDs to give away including FreedomWare for windows and macs, as well as
Ubuntu and Fedora LiveCDs.

There'll also be a range of talks and workshops to attend to learn more
and share your own knowledge.
