Although my name appears on the announcement, I strongly feel that
Bibek Paudel deserves all the praise for leading it all the way. And a
lot of thanks goes to all the volunteers who worked so hard to make
the event a grand success and not to forget the day's participants!

Dear SFD'ers,
Following a highly successful SFD 2008 - with 50% more teams
registered than in 2007 - we are pleased to announce the winners of
the competition for the best event:
FOSS Nepal Community (team leader Subir Pradhanang) - team report PDF 7.4MB
SFD Nicaragua (team leader Leandro Gomez) - team report 1.6MB
DabaweGNU (team leader Holden Hao) - team report
Congratulations to these teams, and many thanks to Subir, Leandro and
Holden for leading their events and telling the world about their how
it went!
Each winning team will be receiving a prize of a pair of OLPC laptops.
The winning entries were selected for the scope of their SFD
activities, the number of people reached (particularly from the wider,
non-technical community) and the quality of the reporting. However we
received many high quality entries - a total of almost fifty
submissions - and special mention also goes to:
Guyana (team leader Vidyaratha Kissoon) - team report
Trinidad and Tobago Computer Society (Dev Anand Teelucksingh) - team report
freeIT (team leader Mylene Sereno) - team report
Thank you to all teams (over 500 teams in almost 90 countries) for
their efforts in making SFD 2008 such a great success, and don't
forget to put Saturday 19 Septermber 2009 in your calendars! To make
sure you don't miss out on registration, make sure that you are
subscribed to the SFD-announce mailing list.
