<h1>On Valentine's Day, show your love for Free Software!</h1>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
This year on Valentine's Day, FSFE calls on Free Software users
|
||
everywhere to show their love for Free Software. Behind every Free
|
||
Software initiative and organisation there are real, hard-working
|
||
people.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
Free Software is everywhere. Its presence on desktop computers,
|
||
servers, routers, mobile phones, television sets and in other
|
||
electronics means that most of us use Free Software every day.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
This is why for Valentine's Day, FSFE invites everyone to show
|
||
their appreciation of the people who produce, distribute and
|
||
promote Free Software.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
“This year why not take the opportunity to show you care about the
|
||
people who show you their love all year round?”, suggests Karsten
|
||
Gerloff, FSFE's President. “Free Software is about making
|
||
technology fit people's needs. It's people who are at the centre
|
||
of it all, not computers.”
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
On <a href="/campaigns/valentine/2010/">its
|
||
campaign page</a>, FSFE suggests what users can do to show that
|
||
they appreciate Free Software. Simply sending a developer a mail to
|
||
say “Thank you”, buying them a book or just giving them a hug – with
|
||
their permission, naturally. Donating to a Free Software
|
||
organisation is also among the options.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
Everyone is invited to post pictures online of them showing their
|
||
love for Free Software. On <a
|
||
href="http://identi.ca/">Identi.ca</a> and Twitter, FSFE is using
|
||
the hash tag <strong>#ilovefs</strong> to collect pictures and build
|
||
a collage.
