What is OpenFest
The concept of free software is very old – even older than the idea
about software itself, because this is not a technology -this is a view
of life, human, simple, and natural. Because this is the idea and
feeling of freedom. This unimpaired freedom with which we are born and
which we carry with us in the course of our lives. This is the same
freedom, which leads our feelings of humanity and justice.
The Internet is a child of this freedom. The free software is its
manifestation. Regardless of its statute as an innermost human right,
freedom is constantly under the attack of politicians, organizations,
companies or separate persons while they try to adapt it to their
morals and views. However, limited freedom is no freedom at all! The
best way to protect this freedom is to share it with others. To make
them remember that they carry this freedom within and that they can and
have the chance to choose and eventually stand by your side.
OpenFest is an idea for a celebration, which should exceed the
boundaries set by differences and morals. Let there be a day each year
in which we, the upholders of free software all over the world try to
make this a day when all people could get in touch with the freedom on
the Internet, with the freedom of open source software, with free
software. Lets all do something for other people on this day – not only
on the net but person to person in real life as well. Let’s leave our
monitors and forget the complex terminology and explain to someone in
simple terms how he or she can use the free software just like us – the
people who’ve fallen in its spell forever. Lets find a person and tell
him about the idea and philosophy and organize lectures, meetings,
expositions, demonstration seminars or installation festivals. Lets all
do this in our hometowns – lets invite journalists, guests,
businessmen, and politicians. Lets organize a world day for free
software – all together – each year – during the second Sunday of
September and forget for a day that some of us prefer GNU/Linux, others
*BSD and others still GNU/Hurd – lets put our differences behind and
let each one of us simply do what he or she can and feels accessible.
It’s not necessary to organize this day yourselves – try to do it with
friends or with the help of public organizations.
Let’s share our freedom! Maybe someone, somewhere close to you is
waiting for a little push in order to start searching for an
alternative, someone who’s waiting for somebody to give him a little
encouragement. Help this person! Show him your computer! Make him/her
your friend! In this way you’ll give him a little piece of freedom! And
don’t forget to have a beer together in the evening! We can organize
this OpenFest in the same way that we write software and documentation
without getting together or being acquainted. Let the whole world be
like free software on this day!
