Following on from our successful Sept Event, Herefordshire Linux and
Open Source Group (HLUG) is holding an Open Source day at All Saints
Church, High Street, in the centre of Hereford on Saturday 26th of
March 2011 from 10am - 4pm. The Event is being held on a drop-in
basis and is free to attend.
We will be focusing on Open Source Cross Platform Software - software
that can be run on Windows, Mac and Linux, demonstrating a number of
Linux operating systems and giving away lots of free Open Source
Software for you to use.
Dr Mark Wright who is Bristol Council's cabinet member responsible
for 'efficiency and value for money' and an Open Source advocate will
be speaking in the afternoon about his experience of Open Source in
Local Government.
The event is being held as a part of the global Document Freedom Day
initiative to highlight the need for Open Document Standards and we
will be showcasing Open Source Office Suites which use open document
standards.
