Just to add to this, the organisers are still looking for people to
help out stewarding and selling cakes, etc. If you're interested
please send an email to Yuwei Lin <address@hidden>.

Additionally, Manchester Free Software will be there selling books and
badges from the FSF, so please come along, have a look and say 'hi'.
