<h1>Freedom to Read, Freedom to Write: Celebrating Document Freedom Day 2011</h1>
|

<p newsteaser="yes">
|
||
Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) invites individuals, community
|
||
groups and institutions to celebrate the Document Freedom Day (DFD) on
|
||
March 30th. DFD is a global day to celebrate Open Standards and open
|
||
document formats and its importance. Open Standards ensure the freedom
|
||
to access your data, and the freedom to build Free Software to write
|
||
and read data in specific formats.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
You can participate by organizing activities in your home town.
|
||
Distributing fliers, organizing talks, adding a banner on your blog,
|
||
donating money: there are many ways you can help spread awareness
|
||
about Open Standards.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
We would like at least 25 cities to take part in Document Freedom Day
|
||
2011. Help us to make this event a global success!
|
||
</p>

<h2>Why Document Freedom Day?</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
An ever greater part of our communication moves into the digital
|
||
world. In the digital society, Open Standards and open document
|
||
formats provide us with the freedom to read and write. They are
|
||
crucial to ensure our ability to exchange information, remain
|
||
independent of software vendors, and keep our data accessible in the
|
||
long term. Open Standards also make sure that we are able to
|
||
communicate and work using Free Software.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2>What are Open Standards?</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
Open Standards are a common language that all computers can speak.
|
||
They enable us to work and communicate using Free Software. They make
|
||
it possible for developers to write Free Software applications that
|
||
are compatible with other solutions, and allow users to migrate to
|
||
Free Software solutions without losing access to their data.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2>What is the aim of the Campaign?</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
The campaign brings a message about Open Standards and document
|
||
formats to a non-technical audience. Open Standards are a basic
|
||
condition for freedom and choice in software. Document Freedom Day
|
||
raises awareness for Open Standards and lets everyone contribute to a
|
||
better information society. It's easy and fun to participate in
|
||
Document Freedom Day, whether as a group or as an individual.
|
||

|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
Document Freedom Day is coordinated by the
