Hi Folks,
We had a great turn out today for the candle light vigil with people from all walks of life expressing their solidarity with the campaign.
V Sasi Kumar, board member of FSF India addressed the gathering. Free Software activists, students, members of BMS and RV college, members of community computing center, members of Sangama - a sexuality minorities human rights organization, IT professionals, academics, were among those gathered. Mahiti and Servlots represented support from small software companies.
First set of photos is available now http://flickr.com/photos/sujith-h/sets/72157606909084209/
More photos and blogs to follow...
Please add "upcoming:event=1022228","Say No To Software Patents", "Candle Light Vigil" and "FSUG Bangalore" as tags to photos you upload to flikr. Send links to this community if you upload else where.
We need to plan for the 27th event and some media coverage would definitely help. Please blog about the event spread word around about the campaign.
Thanks a lot to everyone helped with this event. Looking forward to your participation is the days to come so that we can stop this patent menace.
Cheers Praveen
