Hey all, Although the GNU projects birthday is the 5th of January, tomorrow the 27th of September is the 20th anniversary of it's announcement:

"So that I can continue to use computers without violating my principles, I have decided to put together a sufficient body of free software so that I will be able to get along without any software that is not free."
Organising an fsfe-ie drinking session would be hard since most people have their weekends mapped out, but whatever you're drinking, have one for GNU.
Ciaran O'Riordan.
