SFD Event 
I was asked several times about this, so I decided to set the record straight and explain it here. When you look at the logo, you will find that it clearly points the date as Sat. 19 September, while we are having the event on Sat. 17 October.
Software Freedom Day is a worldwide event organized by the Software Freedom International organization, they announce the event date and all the groups organizing the event have to hold it on that day’s week, 20 or 21 September for example.
We tried to do it, but we knew that it will fail for an obvious reason, Ramadan. No one was interested in waking up early in the morning to hear about open source, or anything for that matter! So, in order that the event gets the success it deserves, we decided to delay it to October. However, to stay affiliated with Software Freedom International, we had to keep the logo as it is, so that our event is still an official Software Freedom Day.
Hope that made things clear. For any inquiries, please contact us on sfd@mufix.org. Looking forward to seeing all of you next Saturday.

SFD Event If you have visited the agenda page today, you must have noticed a couple of changes than when we first announced the event. First, we would like to apologize for any inconvenience that we may have caused. But we had to do it in order to give you the best experience at the event.
First, we combined the events Introduction to Open Source and Open Source Operating Systems into one session: Open Source Concepts and Operating Systems, delivered in two parts. The reason for that is our belief that it will be more beneficial if the information delivered in one session would serve the the ones delivered in the other.
Second is having to end the event at 2:00 PM instead of 2:30, which meant having to cut some time- 5 or 10 minutes- from the all sessions’ time. This was NOT our choice. Our faculty forced us to finish up early as a graduation ceremony is being held at the same venue at 3:00 PM.
Again, we are very sorry for any inconvenience this last minute change caused.
