Software Freedom Day was successful and well received by the members of the public who attended. Most of the goals we set out were addressed. We collected e-mail addresses from 35 people on the day but have only had 4 people enter our draw so far. Ian is going to draft an e-mail to send out to those addresses tomorrow. |

There have been a number of complaints about the actions of a WLUG member. Lindsay will address the issue with this member. |
| |
|
32 |
|
| |
|
33 |
We had a lot of help on the day from people who were not involved with the planning, and need a way of addressing this on the way. |

|

|
| |
|
35 |
People were in general happy to receive the software. One lady was on her way to buy a commercial Office package, and is very happy that we "saved her $250". Overall, the helpers were very happy with the response from the audience. |

The difference between [Free] and [free] wasn't well defined on the display; next time we should pay more attention. We also were unable to have an XGL display; this wasn't a huge concern because the technology to give it to people on a CD isn't quite ready. |
