=== Italians Fete Document Freedom Day  ===
=== LinuxFest Northwest Starts Saturday ===


"Document Freedom Day," an event promoted by the Free Software Foundation, was held March 25 and aimed is to spread free documents formats and the Free Software culture. Luca Foppiano reports about his attendance at the event, which was held in Opera (near Milano, where in 2008 was organized "Liberamente") in his blog<ref>http://blog.foppiano.org/2009/03/30/document-freedom-day/</ref>.
Fedora Project will be attending and presenting at LinuxFest Northwest this weekend in Bellingham, Wash., U.S.A. With five presentations and a booth, Fedora is proud to be a sponsor of LinuxFest Northwest this year.


Luca spoke at the event about the core values of the Fedora project, whose aim is to spread the meaning of the 4 foundations in general, and Fedora’s policies around codecs and firmwares in particular - thus covering a wider subject matter, not only documents.
Below is a list of presentations at LFNW by Fedora folks. all of which will be in room Haskell 203 on the Bellingham Technical College campus.
