Participants coming from as far as DMC Dipolog, and Claret College of Isabela joined and celebrated with the Zamboangueños at STI College for this momentous and intern
ational event dubbed as SOFTWARE FREEDOM DAY!Speakers with great knowledge in the field of Free and Open Source Software enriched the minds of all the participants about the importance of FOSS and its effect to society.
It was a day full of new knowledge and, ofcourse, PRIZES!
Participants were given the benefit of winning a prize through a raffle. Prizes ranged from the simple STI sling, pouch, knapsack, and T-shirts to the Cups & Saucers from Chowking (one of the sponsors) and the much awaited FREE WEB
-HOSTING and DOMAIN NAME which was won by one of STI's very own student! (congrats Nicolle!)All in all, it was a very tiring, yet satisfying day! To think that I woke up as early as 4:00 AM and to be at the venue as early 6:30 AM to make sure everything is ready and set to go... We had some stumble-blocks along the way, but somehow got over it one-by-one.
To Sir RJ Ian Sevilla, thank you so much! For if it weren't for you, I
wouldn't have been able to organize such an event! (your convincing powers are good!)Thank you STI College Zamboanga for all of the support and for providing a venue for this years Software Freedom Day!
And to all those who participated, THANK YOU SO MUCH with all my heart! I wouldn't have done it without you...
Continue promoting Open Source Software! and Continue supporting Software Freedom!!!
Long Live Mindanao Open Source Society!
