Thats a real good thing that even students from various engg colleges are participating actively in the Fedora campaign..well i can help this initiative by creating a forum of sorts for various fedora novices to post their problems. They can then be immediately answered by a team of Fedora experts.. What do you think??

Open Source - Para los paises Hispano Parlantes
by Eduardo Quiroz Salinas 24 Apr '09

24 Apr '09

Sres. He publicado en mi blog(http://www.eduardoquiroz.cl) los resultados de una investigación publicada por RedHat donde se cataloga y rankea a los países de acuerdo a la utilización de Open Source en ellos y el medioambiente para el desarrollo de éste. Como miembros Fedora, propongo que empecemos en Chile a realizar actividades en pro de escalar en el ranking y en promoción de Fedora. Charlas, Install fest, etc. lancemos ideas y luego las aplicamos. Que cada embajador de Fedora de su país comience a realizar la misma actividad pues en Latinoamérica aun estamos bastante atrasados. -- Eduardo Quiroz Salinas Ingeniero Civil Informático eduardoquiroz(a)gmail.com -- http://www.eduardoquiroz.com http://www.eduardoquiroz.cl Linux user number 344659 KDE User 2453 ---------------------------------------------------

Todos estamos haciendo cosas por Fedora como embajadores, no obstante, tal como señala nuestro amigo de Perú más adelante, estamos "solos" trabajando y eso, al parecer no está alcanzando 100%. Obviamente no haremos del mapa nuestra ideología o nuestra meta, pero Argentina, Perú y casi todo Latam menos brasil, estamos con ranking limitado/mediocre. Ahi es donde apunto. Tenemos que, quizá, unirnos en alguna especie de cruzada por país con todos los embajadores y luego por latinoamérica para levantar nuestros índices-país. -- Eduardo Quiroz Salinas Ingeniero Civil Informático eduardoquiroz(a)gmail.com -- http://www.eduardoquiroz.com http://www.eduardoquiroz.cl Linux user number 344659 KDE User 2453 ---------------------------------------------------

FamNA Temporary Tattoo status.
by David Duncan 23 Apr '09

23 Apr '09

I just got off the phone with the printer and they are still working up the final quote. They were delayed by my special request that the white section of the infinity logo remain white. Normally temporary tattoos are transparent where the drawings are white. I expect to hear something from them very soon. Barring any unforseen pricing issues, I am expecting them to begin printing next Monday and to be completed by Friday, May 1. Thanks, David Duncan davdunc(a)fedoraproject.org

Fedora Spirit videos
by Andrew Jamison 22 Apr '09

22 Apr '09

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello Fellow Ambassadors, I have been looking around for cool ways to promote Fedora and stumbled across Ubuntu's Spirit of Ubuntu videos they are planning for the official media (media ordered from launchpad) that has several videos from prominent people in the Ubuntu community that have helped some way or another. I think something similar but not neccessarily the same exact model would be cool to include on media that is handed out at events so people can show this to their friends and help to further spread the word. Information on the Ubuntu program can be found here for reference https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuFreeCultureShowcase Anyway just an idea but let me know what you guys think thanks, Andrew Jamison IRC: ajamison5579 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iJwEAQECAAYFAknjxbwACgkQh7SjI2F18kPHYgP+NL8l7g6k87A8Mta0oSL7Dixb GU/V9Hidco5FNzNJELUC47L9I7MPwxH768g3iJNWlcl3Z6m+D0uzNhICA0NnK5dJ W1DcvwWzbFy0MeMZnX4wmUZXh9AuO64ecGmMi7VEkF/VO39pkd937hun71rueiUy iyUgHJxGo1UUgzMLjAA= =itue -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
