(If you are reading FSFE's newsletters [1] (and you should when you
have not yet given me feedback what I could improve ;) ), and you
already use one of our banners [2], you can skip this post because I
copied and pasted it. Else please continue.)
Let us admit it, the Free Software community is often very critical.
Wewrite bug reports, tell others how they can improve the software, ask
them fornew features, and to not spare with criticism. Sometimes we
forget to say "thank you, for all your work". As in the last years, we
want to change this, at least for one day. So on Tuesday the 14th of
February we will celebrate the "I love Free Software" - Day [3].
Get active, buy your favourite developer a drink or give them a hug (ask
forpermission first), write an e-mail/letter [4] expressing your
feelings, create nice pictures, donate to a Free Software initiative,
use another of our suggestions [5] or be create yourself to show how you
appreciate people, working hard to enlarge or defend our freedom.
Beside that help us to promote the activity with our banners [6], by
e-mail, (micro)blog or in your (distributed?) social networks.
New this year is a whole day event in the Unperfekthaus in Essen
(Germany) [7] and that all our Fellows automatically get an
login(a)ilovefs.org e-mail alias.
So let's make sure that on February 14th there are more love reports,
than bug reports!
All the best,
Matthias

Hi everyone,
The new English version of the tool leaflet is almost done. It is quite
different from the original German one.
--> the language needs to be proofread
--> the text (actual content) needs to be checked
Ideas / critics / remarks welcome!
Since I sent the source file to designers@, I'm just attaching the pdf
here to have less conflicts. Just tell me if you need them.
I sent the following points to designers@, but your are also welcome to
comment on it:
--> colours are slightly different
--> I couldn't arrange the text nicely -> word breaks are very bad and
non consistent, as is justification. The little boxes look terrible if
justified, the big texts look messy if not justified
--> the third box of the third inside panel is special, if know how to
make it look better please tell me
Any other advice? Feedback?
Thanks!
Best,
Lucile

Hi all
I hope to see people at FOSDEM. I've submitted at couple of lightning
talk proposals, and they have accepted one, namely about BibOS Admin,
which a remote administration system for GNU/Linux systems which was
built as a substitute for Canonical's Landscape product.
The system currently doesn't have its own home page, only a production
site which you can only see if you have a login, but the code and
documentation is on Github:
https://github.com/magenta-aps/bibos_admin
Best,
Carsten

Perfect, thank you! I included most of the changes and will now be able to
transfer all texts to the graphical timeline.

Thank you as well for your help. I'm wondering why this isn't in the pad
anymore. Karsten has added one or two news items but somehow it disappeared.
Anyway, I already wrote a new item trying to summarize all news about this
topic in one success. You can see it in the final timeline :)
You have been a big help for me and the whole project. Thank you!
Best regards,
Max
