Event Report: BarCamp Charlotte
by David Nalley 24 Jan '09

24 Jan '09

BarCamp Charlotte was today and Fedora was a sponsor of the event. Leam Hall, Greg DeKoenigsberg, and Alex Maier also showed up. In all three talks were pitched, and from those Alex's 'How to not suck at managing volunteers' and Greg's talk on OLPC were handled first before lunch. The event itself seemed a bit chaotic, but since was their first BarCamp I suppose it is to be expected. The venue, Area 15, was exceedingly chilly inside, but had lots of space, even if it was disjointed. Around 100 people showed up for the event, with a large percentage of them being 'social media' types. There were also two 'How to make money online' sessions that honestly were almost creepy. Both Greg and Alex has good sessions with lots of interaction from the attendees. Around 2pm we broke for lunch, and after seeing no further compelling sessions we left around 4pm.

2008-01-22 FAMSCO Meeting Summary
by Thomas Canniot 24 Jan '09

24 Jan '09

Hello and welcome to this second FAMSCO weekly meeting summary. The latest meeting was hold on the 22th January 2009 on #fedora-meeting Attendees: Francesco Fugolini Joerg Simon Susmit Shannigrahi Rodrigo Padula Max Spevack David Nalley Regreted attendee: Thomas Canniot Francesco starts by announcing the meeting agenda : 1. Budget 2. Review current tasks 3. Define/discuss tasks' deadline 4. Migration to new freemedia system, approval and issues. 5. Having a git repo for ambassador scripts. 6. t.b.d. 1. Budget Max start by reviewing the latest and hottest topics about FAMSCo budget. FOSDEM is _the_ big budget task for this quarter: there are lots of travel sponsorships and Max will need to collect them during the event, as this should be done before the end of RedHat Q4 (mid February). Max also expects to finance the being prepared FAD in India. The topic of how to finance LATAM is asked by Rodrigo Padula. From Max point of view, this topic is really a big one and long discussion on how dealing with this financing will have to be done soon. From his point of view, RedHat has to bet much more involved in this topic, which would avoid creating a legal entity in LATAM, as Rodrigo suggested. 2. Review current tasks and Define/discuss tasks' deadine Mentoring task is then being discussed. As there are already regional mentors, the idea of giving them the task and, if needed, tools to handle it. David Nalley pointed out that he has planned to attend Marketing meeting this week. Rodrigo Padula added he is waiting from local RedHat to go forward on his task on LATAM events. 4. Migration to new freemedia system, approval and issues. About the migration to new freemedia system, handled by Susmit, it is ready to go and waiting for approval from both infrastructure team (that he has now) and the board. Rodrigo Padula asked for translation of the Freemedia System. 5. Having a git repo for ambassador scripts. Tasks review is then being discussed. The main topic is the settlement of the GIT system and the packaging of scripts to automate the creation of stats for Ambassadors. However, Susmit added his doubt about having a new and separate GIT repo for them, as the Project already have GIT repos. Maybe they can be used in that purpose as well. Migrating to trac the Ambassador membership system is being worked on and is scheduled for February. Francesco adjourned the meeting. Thanks for reading and see you next week. Your dear FAMSCO

I have submitted a speaker application (poster session) for the upcoming 34th Annual Trenton Computer Festival, April 25 and 26 2009 held in Ewing New Jersey USA. If approved, I will speak about Fedora in general and distribute live media. I am unsure if I will have need of an event box at this time. http://tcf-nj.org If any other Ambassadors are planning on attending the festival, please let me know off list. You are welcome to help speak, present or even just say Hello. It would be great to meet you. -- Kam http://kamsalisbury.com GPG key: FAF1751E -----Original Message----- From: "Neville A.
