FW: Hardware Freedom Day is on, join us and celebrate on March 15th 2014!

[Michael P. Flaga]

I think it would be a great idea for us to have an event.

It could be as simple as Open House Hours, and or build up from there.

Any suggestions?

Dear all,

With a bit of delay we are happy to announce the registration opening for Hardware Freedom Day [1]. While the event was softly launched about 2 weeks ago (and announce early this year through our Digital Freedom Foundation [2] website) we are happy to inform you that Hardware Freedom Day will be celebrated on March 15th this year. For its second edition we hope this is a good opportunity to promote Open Source Hardware and reach people who might not be aware of your existence. We also would like to encourage you to combines topic such as some treated during Education Freedom Day [3] (celebrated last January) where hacking open source hardware can definitely enhance extra curriculum activities for the younger crowd, a topic which seems to be of interest to the hackerspace mailing list [4] . Of course learning is happening at all ages and that would probably work for older crowd too ;-)

So as usual just head over to our wiki [5], create your event page and register your event [6] to appear on the map [7] with the others.

All the best and don't hesitate to send us message on the HFD mailing list [8] if you have any questions.

Happy HFD!

Digital Freedom Foundation.
