The Latin American Free Software Installation Festival (FLISoL) is the biggest event for the dissemination of Free Software in Latin America. We carried out since 2005 and its main aim is to promote the free software use, giving to the general public knowledge about philosophy, scope, progress and development.

To that end, various communities of free software (in each country in each city / locality), simultaneously organized events where is installed, free of charge and completely legal, free software in computers that carry the audience. Furthermore, in parallel, will offer lectures, presentations and workshops on topics of local, national and International Free Software works, across their range of expression: artistic, academic, business and social.

Date: April 9th
Time: 8am to 5pm
Location: LatinAmerican+Spain
Argentina, Bolivia, Brasil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Ecuador, El Salvador, España, Guatemala, México, Nicaragua, Panamá, Paraguay, Perú, Republica Dominicana, Uruguay and Venezuela

St. Anthony is a clean, well-run facility, and there are friendly guards stationed out on the sidewalk in front of the place. BART and Muni service St. Anthony’s, and there are plenty of paid parking structures nearby.

Notice the emphasis on Free Open Source Software at this event. St. Anthony is really “getting” the importance of Free Open Source Software:

Tenderloin Computer Help Day
September 27, 2008

Network Ministries, St. Anthony Foundation and other Tenderloin agencies strive to increase technology use by offering computer classes and labs. But many Tenderloin residents may have old or obsolete computer equipment and software is often too expensive.

At this event, volunteers will

1. Demonstrate how to use computers and install free open source software;

2. Provide technical support and troubleshooting for existing computers; and

4. Demonstrate how to sign up for email and browse the Internet to find useful information and resources.

You can select one of the teams or you can help out wherever you are needed.

Please consider coming to this event to increase the visibility of Free Open Source Software in the non-profit section in the San Francisco Bay Area!
