STACS event in London

[Jonas Oberg]

Hi all,

a few weeks ago, the FSFE together with M6-IT organised an event in
London, taking place at The Hub near Angel. The event was part of the
STACS project that we're working on and was intended to bring NGOs to
London to learn more about Free Software. Ryan Cartwright, IT manager of
Contact a Family, a UK charity for families with disabled children,
participated in the event and wrote about it on the Free Software Magazine:

Generally, the feeling from the event, which Ryan also writes, is that
we need to do more such events in the future, in other places in Europe,
to give more NGOs that opportunity to learn more about Free Software and
get some hands-on experience from using it.

There's some ideas about doing similar events in Berlin and Gothenburg
or Stockholm, but nothing definitely decided yet.
