I'll be there - anyone else ?

I'm going tonight, and I'll probably try to go tomorrow too. Cheers, Alex

I'm going to both events. I probably won't be able to get there before 5:30pm, but am happy to help out when I arrive if I'm needed. Should I to bring along any copies of the pages for people to sign or anything else, or is that all under control? We've got plenty of pens, lots of spare copies of the letter for all to view, etc?

Hi Adam I am only doing tomorrow. Tonite there will be Dale Dickens giving out SFD flyers. You should see her there. If you want send her an email telling you'll be there. Email: dale@madinmelbourne.com.au. BTW: *DO* contact her if you going, confirm address with her - as she may think its at RMIT!? I will buzz her too. Cheers Daniel

Hi all Could every one who will be attending Richard Stallman talk on *Thursday* and willing to assist with promoting SFD please tell me their names. One of the event organisers, Amit Goel, wants our names so we can coordinate with him. The suggestion is for us to distribute flyers and also to have a presence at the after talk networking drinks etc. I believe we have myself, Alex and Adam so far - and Ben? Ben do you want to connect with Amit, or do you already have contacts? Cheers Daniel.

Wherever I'm needed most. Unfortunately I don't actually have any flyers to hand out, and I'm not likely to be as early getting there as I'd

Is there anyone who is only interested in helping petition against software patents *or* promoting SFD (ie. one, but not the other)? If everyone is happy to support both (which wouldn't surprise me), perhaps we should try our best to coordinate our strategy. I'm not sure how busy it will get as people are going in, but maybe it will be easier to talk somebody you are already talking to about both topics at the same time? It would be a shame if people gave signatures but didn't get a chance to hear about SFD, or vise-versa. Regards, Adam
