Document Freedom Day

Document Freedom Day (DFD) is an annual event to "celebrate and raise awareness of Open Standards".

A year later, in 2014, 51 groups in 22 countries held events celebrating Document Freedom Day.

"[9] Document freedom addresses much more than just essays and spreadsheets, it is about control of any kind of a digital data - including artwork, sheet and recorded music, email, and statistics.

This makes Open Standards essential for governments, companies, organisations and individual users of information technology.

"[10] Document Freedom Day organizers have their own definition of technical standards that are considered to be open.
