+1 Is my case too. Is a joyful celebratory experience that happens on a common base. I think that an "official" celebration date helps to get awareness, like the Open Data Day [1] or the FLISoL[2], the biggest/oldest free/libre software install fest in the world with 20+ countries in sync the same day that we started ~15 years ago (but it lack of visibility, being done mostly in the Global South :-/). Anyway, having a similar celebratory event could help in this happy awareness for outsiders and insiders. Something like the Smalltalk Fest, where no matter where you live, or your variant of Smalltalk, we can celebrate together and raise the awareness on the happy experience that we have day to day.
