| On 19 September, we celebrate Software Freedom Day. At 
| tomorrow's Boston gathering, I will have an opportunity 
| to thank the Free Software Foundation on behalf of Sugar 
| Labs for their support. I will also have a chance to 
| tell the story of Sugar, our efforts to help children 
| learn to learn and learn to love and exercise their 
| freedom. I will also solicit your help.

Software Freedom Day 19th September

| It is upon us! Horay! After much planning we have 
| managed to secure a great spot to park ourselves, beg, 
| borrow and get sponsorship to pull this off.
| 
| Hundreds of people all over New Zealand, and in fact the 
| world have been doing this. Why? Because we are sick of 
| paying out massive amounts of cash to companies for 
| stuff we can get for free that's just as good!
