Hallo zusammen,
hier mal die Ankündigung von unserer Englischen Diskussionsliste. Wir wollen hier mal noch etwas Rückmeldung einholen, Übersetzungen machen und das ganze dann vermutlich Anfang Januar noch in einer Pressemitteilung ankündigen.
Falls ihr pdfreaders.org verlinkt, dann schickt doch bitte kurz wo ihr das gemacht habt.
Ansonsten natürlich nochmal vielen Dank an Hannes, Henner, Markus und all die anderen Leute, die hier mitgeholfen haben.

Dear Fellows,
during our regular meetings in the Berlin Fellowship group we discussed how PDF is a very useful format, but its usage often goes hand in hand with promotion of proprietary software, even though there are Free Software PDF readers. So we decided to do something about it.
Over the past months we discussed with other Fellows across Europe on discussions@lists.fsfe.org, what we should be doing. Together we have set up an initiative for promoting Free Software PDF readers at http://pdfreaders.org.
The idea is that web masters should have an alternative for the "Get Adobe Reader"-Buttons, linking to pdfreaders.org to inform people about Free Software PDF readers and where to find them. There are several buttons for pdfreaders.org that can be used for this purpose online at http://pdfreaders.org/graphics.html.
When people then visit pdfreaders.org, they will get some very brief information about Open Standards and Free Software, and why they matter - along with information about the Free Software PDF readers and links for more information.
We hope that you will help us to put these buttons on all sites that use PDF.
Greetings from Berlin, HennR and Hannes
