Hey guys,
I want to share details about an event next week in D.C. We want to get the word out to as many people as possible, including Wikimedians, Creative Commoners, Mozillans, hackers, academics, and geeks of all stripes.
This is guaranteed to be a really fun event, and we'd appreciate if you'd tell your friends and colleagues, tweet like crazy, and spread the word.
Free Culture X Conference in Washington D.C., Feb 13-14. Pay what you want http://bit.ly/fcconf #fcx
Free Culture X, a conference of Students for Free Culture, will be held February 13/14th at the George Washington University in Washington, D.C. Keynote addresses will be given by Harvard Berkman Center co-founder Jonathan Zittrain, the co-founder of the public interest group Public Knowledge, Gigi Sohn, and the director of American University's Center for Social Media, Pat Aufderheide.
The conference is focused on developing greater openness among institutions of higher education by specifically investigating: The politics of open networks, Global access to knowledge, Free software, and Open education. Registration is pay-what-you-want, whether that's $1 or $100. All proceeds will go directly to help projects of Students for Free Culture. The average registration is currently about $25. Gifts (such as signed copies of books by Lawrence Lessig and Henry Jenkins or custom voicemail recordings by Jonathan Zittrain) are awarded for bigger donations.

Cheers, Ben SFC Board of Directors

If someone could make a [[Wikipedia:Meetup/DC Free Culture X]] page, I'll be very glad to put it on the geonotice to get it out to more DC-area Wikimedians.

I'm going to hitch a ride on the NYU Free Culture van on Friday morning, and so hopefully we can get together for some wiki stuff at the conf, particularly at the unconference/workshops on Sunday.
