We invite you to form local teams and set up tables in town centers, shopping malls, or wherever there are likely to be lots of people on a Saturday.

"Free software exists for the same reason blogs exist, for the same reason some people post their poetry and short stories on their websites instead of trying to get them published. They're having fun."
Wrong. The GNU project existed to positively benefit society by destroying proprietary software, a phenomenon which maintains a status quo and takes away our right to tinker. It's more than just "having fun," it's about the future of our world. Read the GNU Manifesto, read interviews with Stallman and other GNU developers.
