There was a great turn out a Software Freedom Day this weekend with 400 people in attendance and a solid 30 presentations. The presentations in the Drupal track were some of the best attended sessions of the day. To get a sense of Drupal's traction down here, "Drupal" was mentioned in many sessions and conversations throughout the day, and not just by the people working directly with Drupal.

I had a great time meeting people and learning about the work being done in the different open source communities here in Peru. Software Freedom Day is becoming an annual event in Peru, and there were many discussions on improving the event for next year as well as keeping the energy going to improve the image of open source software in the country. It's great to see the community looking forward like this, and I'm excited to help keep the open source movement growing in Peru.
