Pourquoi ne pas faire de ce 14 Février une St Valentin très spéciale ?
Pour la St Valentin, la FSFE en appelle aux utilisateurs de Logiciels
Libres à travers le monde pour démontrer leur amour pour les Logiciels
Libres[1] . c'est l'occasion rêvée pour déclarer votre amour pour les
Logiciels Libres et la possibilité d'utiliser les ordinateurs pour
pr´eserver nos libertés.
Sur sa page de campagne[2] , la FSFE donne aux utilisateurs des idées
pour montrer qu'ils apprécient les Logiciels Libres. Simplement envoyer
un mail à un développeur pour lui dire «merci», prendre une photo
illustrant votre amour pour les Logiciels Libres, déclarer votre flamme
par microblogging[3] avec le tag #ilovefs ou faire un don à un proejt de
Logiciels Libres[4] font partie des options.
Derrière chaque initiative de Logiciels Libres et derrière chaque
organisations, il y a des réelles personnes qui travaillent dur. Juste
pour une journée, le jour de la St Valentin, la FSFE invite tous les
activistes de Logiciels Libres à travers le monde à envoyer un message
de remerciement aux personnes qui travaillent pour faire que les Logiciels
Libres soient une réalité.
"Sans Logiciels Libres, il n'y aurait pas de KDE. Les Logiciels Libres
donnent vie à KDE. KDE aime les Logiciels Libres" déclare Cornelius
Schumacher, Président de KDE e.V. "aucun projet de Culture Libre ne
pourraient profiter pleinement des libertés sans l'infrastructure créée
par les projets de Logiciels Libres […]. A toutes les personnes engagés
dans le soutien à cette infrastructure : Merci ! Nous vous aimons ! ",
ajoute Jonas Öberg de la Society for Free Culture and Software
(Föreningen fri kultur och programvara)[5]

= European Patent: FSFE urges European Parliament to wait for legal advice =
[Permanent URL: http://fsfe.org/news/2011/news-20110209-01.fr.html ]
Free Software Foundation Europe is asking the Members of the European
Parliament to wait for legal advice before voting on a unitary patent for
Europe. While a proposal is on the Parliament's agenda for the coming
week, a legal opinion by the European Court of Justice is expected later
this month.
"Software patents hurt innovation and are an unnecessary burden on
European software developers," says Karsten Gerloff, President of the Free
Software Foundation Europe. "Legislators need to take charge and make sure
the patent system contributes to the public good. As the European Patent
Organisation has acknowledged, this is a decision that cannot be left to
bureaucrats and the judiciary."
FSFE is concerned that the European Parliament will lose legislative
competence regarding patents, which will then be controlled by the
European Patent Organisation. This clearly creates a conflict of interest,
as the EPO will be responsible both for awarding patents and for defining
what is patentable. The EPO's expansionist record in this regard gives
cause to worry that this will lead to software patents being validated.
The European Court of Justice is expected to publish its opinion about the
proposed "enhanced cooperation" of EU member states towards creating a
single patent system for Europe. Documents published so far indicate that
the Court will find the proposal in conflict with the EU treaties.
Resolving these will require fundamental changes to the proposal. The
Parliament's vote should take place after these changes so that the
Parliament can review the actual proposal.
FSFE hopes that the vote will be delayed until the Parliament can read the
Court of Justice's opinion and has had time to analyse this proposal.

= Freedom to Read, Freedom to Write: Celebrating Document Freedom Day 2011 =
[Permanent URL: http://fsfe.org/news/2011/news-20110202-01.fr.html ]
Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) invites individuals, community
groups and institutions to celebrate the Document Freedom Day (DFD) on
March 30th. DFD is a global day to celebrate Open Standards and open
document formats and its importance. Open Standards ensure the freedom to
access your data, and the freedom to build Free Software to write and read
data in specific formats.
You can participate by organizing activities in your home town.
Distributing fliers, organizing talks, adding a banner on your blog,
donating money: there are many ways you can help spread awareness about
Open Standards.
We would like at least 25 cities to take part in Document Freedom Day
2011. Help us to make this event a global success!
For more information about the event, please have a look at
documentfreedom.org[1] .

Find out how to get involved[2] .
2. http://documentfreedom.org/2011/getinvolved.en.html
== Why Document Freedom Day? ==
An ever greater part of our communication moves into the digital world. In
the digital society, Open Standards and open document formats provide us
with the freedom to read and write. They are crucial to ensure our ability
to exchange information, remain independent of software vendors, and keep
our data accessible in the long term. Open Standards also make sure that
we are able to communicate and work using Free Software.
== What are Open Standards? ==
Open Standards are a common language that all computers can speak. They
enable us to work and communicate using Free Software. They make it
possible for developers to write Free Software applications that are
compatible with other solutions, and allow users to migrate to Free
Software solutions without losing access to their data.
== What is the aim of the Campaign? ==
The campaign brings a message about Open Standards and document formats to
a non-technical audience. Open Standards are a basic condition for freedom
and choice in software. Document Freedom Day raises awareness for Open
Standards and lets everyone contribute to a better information society.
It's easy and fun to participate in Document Freedom Day, whether as a
group or as an individual.
Document Freedom Day is coordinated by the Free Software Foundation
Europe[3] .
