Yesterday was one of the greatest day in my life. Together with over 800 children and @fsfe guests we had the German premiere of the movie "Ada & #Zangemann - A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream".

Reading those letters by pupils who wrote to the character #Zangemann always makes me feel 🤗🥰. It makes me confident that they will in their future life solve some of the problems in society for which I don't have an answer yet.

The French publisher @CFEditions created an online version of "Ada & #Zangemann - A Tale of #Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream". Works great on my mobile as well:. Free licenses like #CreativeCommons made this possible. @lessig @framaka.
