Firstly, a big thanks again to all those that helped out with the stall. It was another good year. We explained why Open Source misses the point of Free Software and about the FSF's worldwide mission. Again the FSF's Moving to free software site was useful. The FreedomBox really caught people's interest, along with the upcoming talk on 17th April - FreedomBox: Practical freedom in a box. The stickers and magazines went down well. Looking forward to next year, see you there.

Details
I have arranged a stall for MFS at Chorlton's Big Green Festival 2012. Horrah! This will be our third year in a row of having a stall at the event.
We will be promoting the Free Software philosophy, MFS, LibrePlanet and the FSF. If you want help out with this then let us know. If you can't help out the whole day then helping out part of the day is still very welcome. The event is fun and it's great to chat to people so receptive to Free Software.
Write up from past years:
