consegi 2008
I am attending consegi 2008, which has been an amasing experience. Free Software programmes are on a completey different dimension in Brazil which is now true for a lot of Latin America. The opening session had Two Ministers, head of the state bank and various senior goverment representatives and members from the free software community. The commitment to Free Software from all of government and civil soceity is inspiring. The strong and good relationship between government and the free software community is not unusual in this part of the world. The highlight of the first session was the signing of the Brazilia Protocol.
