This Saturday, September 19th, is the twelfth annual Software Freedom Day,
an international celebration of our favorite thing: free software!

Software Freedom Day means hundreds of fun, educational events, planned by
activists all over the globe using resources provided by the Digital
Freedom Foundation <http://www.digitalfreedomfoundation.org/>. Here's a map
<http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/map/index.php?year=2015> where you can
find an event near you.

Have you encountered a bug in one of your favorite free software projects,
or is there a feature you think might make a project even better? Let the
developers know today by submitting a bug report or feature request. If
you've never done this before, it's easy. Just review the existing open
items first to see if someone else has already taken action. Many GNU
projects, from the LibreJS <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=librejs>
Web browser add-on to the GIMP <http://www.gimp.org/bugs/> image editor,
make it easy for users to submit a bug report for review by developers.

As in past years, the Free Software Foundation encourages the free software
community to spend this holiday introducing a friend to free software. Our User
Liberation
<https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/user-liberation-watch-and-share-our-new-video>
video will help explain what free software is and why it's important. Our Email
Self-Defense <https://emailselfdefense.fsf.org> site is a straightforward
guide to email encryption using free software, and the Free Software
Directory <http://directory.fsf.org> is a great place to browse for free
software for specific tasks. You can place these shareable badges
<http://www.fsf.org/resources/badges/> on your social media account, Web
site, or blog to spread the word about free software online.

If you do submit a bug for Software Freedom Day, tell us about it! Use your
GNU Social, Pump.io, or Twitter account (but read our critique of Twitter
<https://fsf.org/twitter> first) to tell us about it by tagging us @fsf.
We'd love to reshare your effort with the free software community.

Of course, you can help support, celebrate, and educate others about free
software year-round. The FSF celebrates its 30th anniversary in two weeks,
on Saturday, October 3rd. You can find a birthday event in your region (or
plan one of your own) in our party network
<https://libreplanet.org/wiki/FSF30_Party_Network>, or RSVP to our birthday
party <https://my.fsf.org/civicrm/event/register?reset=1&id=26> and User
Freedom Summit <https://my.fsf.org/civicrm/event/register?id=27> if you can
be in Boston on October 3rd. And you can wear your free software pride with
our commemorative FSF30 t-shirt <http://shop.fsf.org/product/fsf-30-shirt/>,
available for preorder now.

Free software is worth celebrating every day, but we hope you find a way to
make Software Freedom Day 2015 extra special. Submit a bug report, teach a
friend, or spend some time hacking on your own free software.

As always, happy hacking.
