 According the Wikipedia, the "plan for the GNU operating system was
publicly announced on 27 September 1983."
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1983>Coincidentally,
Google celebrates its birthday on September 27.  This year GNU turns 25 and
Google turns 10.

I wonder why they picked the 20th instead of the 27th?

I will work on getting SCC to honor Software Freedom Day for those people
who don't want to stray too far away from Scottsdale.
