Ante a vindeira discusión no Parlamento Europeo dunha vía legal para acadar a patentabilidade do software, moitos grupos estatais e nacionais están traballando a prol de manifestacións que conciencen ás autoridades dos perigos que tal medida pode supoñer ao desenvolvemento tecnolóxico.

AGNX acadou un un Convenio de Colaboración co Centro de Supercomputación de Galicia (CESGA) para o desenvolvemento do GNIX-Vivo.

Pasou polo campus de Ourense, a Universidade de Vigo e a da Coruña.
Tes algunhas fotos da súa estadía por Coruña e Santiago. Unha das fotos máis visitadas é a da maior auréola que RMS puxo durante a súa visita ao CESGA. De feito, esta foto está colgada tamén da súa páxina Stallman.org.
After we had to install another blog product, the Blogs should now be coming to operational stage. The new product ("quills") seems to work very well and definitely better than the one we chose in the first phase ("SimpleBlog") — even though quills is marked as beta release.
We could need somebody to follow the development of quills, so if there are volunteers for this, please step up.
We have also been working on the workflow so Fellows can choose whether their content will be visible to all visitors (choose 'publish' state) of the site or just to the other Fellows (choose 'visible' state, default). A complete howto is underway.
To celebrate the Fellowship launch, FSFE and Newthinking – Network for Free Software – are having a Freedom Party in Berlin.
On 19 March 2005, Fellows and interested users will mix and mingle in a
relaxed environment at the Newthinking Store, Tucholskystr. 48,
Berlin-Mitte. Besides socialising, guests can catch up on the news
about Freedom in the digital society and Free Software.
At this opportunity, FSFE will present the CryptoCard that makes strong data protection available to all users.

The CryptoCards, which will give all Fellows the power to use strong authentication and encryption are currently at the printer. They should be ready around 20 March 2005 and we will start personalising and shipping them immediately.
All things considered, you should hold your card in hands around the end of March.
As you will have noticed, some parts of the portal are still not fully functional, in particular the blogs are still having a permission problem. Together
with people from the Plone community we are working to get the
functionality up and running within the next days. We apologise for the
delay — if you think you can help with testing workflows, hack
portlets, integrate i18n, please get in touch with the list system-hackers@fsfeurope.org.
After artundweise.de was so kind to
volunteer doing the design for the site based on the pro-bono
artworks by futurebrand, we had a long week getting things properly
applied and installed.
Special thanks go to the global Plone
community that helped us quickly and competently with the tasks at
hand. Special thanks go to Russ Ferriday for help with the layout, as
weel as Riccardo Lemmi from reflab.it and Holger Lehmann from
catworkx.de, who helped us with the not-entirely-trivial registration
form. Thanks to that combined effort, the page is now online and
ready to accept your registration.
The Fellowship of FSFEurope is very special for FSFE: we have been
working hard in past months to create this community. A special
thanks goes out to all of you who have already signed up as Fellows at
FOSDEM. Thank you!
But is the first person to sign up automatically Fellow #1? We at
FSFE think that it would be more fair to give to all
FOSDEM participants the possibility to be Fellow #1, so we're offering
the chance for number #1 to be assigned randomly among those who have
signed up before 23:59 on Sunday, February 27.
So, sign up now and good luck!
Fellowship team
