What is Document Freedom Day

​Document Freedom Day is an annual celebration of open standards and free document formats, and we are joining this gathering, online and in-person in Melbourne (Naarm). If you've ever been locked out of a file because you didn't have the right software, or worried about your personal notes on EverNote or company notes on the cloud, this is exactly the kind of conversation worth having.

Especially now, in the new era of AI, while our documents and data are more prayed on, there are more potential opportunities to store, access and hardness insight from our documents privately and securely.

​Join the meeting to listen in, to participate in the discussion or even present a lightning talk about a topic or technology you are passionate about.
