Episodio Oggi siamo insieme ad Amreo del BgLug, Linux User Group di Bergamo per una iniziativa nata attorno ad un libro illustrato, che si svolgerà il 15 febbraio 2025.Un libro nato per spiegare cos'e' il Free Software ai figli dell'autore, Matthias Kirschner. https://fsfe.org/activities/ada-zangemann/FSFE ha dato il patrocinio all'iniziativa e Marta ce ne parla. Dietro a queste iniziative c'e' un progetto ampio, un progetto didattico con l'obiettivo di dare codice ai giovani entro il 2050 perche' sappiano usare il software invece di restarne schiavi.Se pensate che la viralità sia minima, vi sbagliate: i primi che hanno ricevuto il libro illustrato l'hanno condiviso, hanno voluto kit per riproporlo sul proprio territorio, e ora diventano formatori e divulgatori, ai quali vengono forniti approfondimenti, materiali e quanto serve. Che bello vedere come internet sa far nascere rivoluzioni importanti dal basso e pacificamente. Coinvolgendo tutti. Seguite:bglug.it per le iniziative ada.fsfe.org per il libro licenza (CC-BY-SA 4.0) (Disponibile anche cartaceo italiano su streetlib)fsfe.org/activities/ada-zangemann/ per le recensioni dei lettoriDalle recensioni: "Ada and Zangemann explains the concepts of FOSS to school kids… and managers, marketing people, and victims of Windows-induced Stockholm Syndrome. [...]The book explains this in accessible terms of ice cream flavors, smart skateboards, and speakers which are restricted in what music they play. [...] [I]t gives kids agency: it shows them that they can have control of something and do their own thing."Liam Proven, The Register"This book illustrates the power of free and open source software in a way that's both fun and accessible."
