Software Freedom Day 2008

Well today was the day, we did not have as many people stop by as we had hoped. However disc were handed out and new friendships and alliances were formed. We got to meet the newest member of The New Mexico LoCo Phil Smith and few of those ABQ Web Geeks showed up as well, a game of tremulous broke out and fun was had by all.

Pictures of the event:

Let the games begin, Eric got kicked off his own game server, and he's none to happy about it.
