FAmSCo Report: December 2010
by Igor Pires Soares 02 Feb '11

02 Feb '11

Hello all! I know this is kinda late for publishing the FAmSCo report of December but is better late than never! The January report won't take that long, I promise! ;) If you feel that something is missing, please feel free to edit the wiki: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAmSCo_report_2011-12 If you prefer a nice shining PDF you can download it here: http://igor.fedorapeople.org/FAmSCo/FAmSCo-Report-en-US-December.pdf I would like to thank Susmit and Joerg for providing the source files of the previous reports which I based this report upon. I hope that those ones who attended to FUDCon Tempe made it safe home and whish that those who got stuck in Arizona due to the bad weather in some parts of the USA can get to home soon, unless you would like to keep enjoying the nice weather of Tempe. :) Regards, -- Igor Pires Soares Fedora Ambassador (Brazil) - Member of FAmSCo Fedora I18N/L10N QA https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Igor

photowalk at FOSDEM anyone?
by Nicu Buculei 02 Feb '11

02 Feb '11

Since I am still mad about my new wide lens (which is also good for architecture photos) I would like to walk a bit on Brussels streets, taking some photos, anyone want to join? However, I am not sure when I will find the time for that: Saturday and Sunday will be busy days, with night falling before the FOSDEM schedule is over, Friday is also busy with the FAD... maybe between the FAD and the beer event may we sneak half of an hour? Or if our gears allow, to it by night? (the night will limit the options). Whatever, if someone is interested, reply here or ping me. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com/

Fedora Tunisia at FOSDEM 2011 (was: Re: Request for a FOSDEM 2011 invitation letter)
by Ilyes Gouta 01 Feb '11

01 Feb '11

Hi, We confirm that, myself and Nihed M'barek, will be present at this year's FOSDEM 2011 iteration. We'll be staying at the Renaissance Hotel for the duration of the event, just like the previous year. We'd like to thank Bert Desmet and Frederic Hornain for the invitation letter and the strong support, you guys have provided to us with. We've got a lot of facts and stories to tell about Tunisia. See you there soon ! :) -Ilyes On Tue, Dec 21, 2010 at 1:42 PM, Ilyes Gouta <ilyes.gouta(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Bert, > > Alright, alright! :) They are OK, Thanks! > > I'm going to initiate the Visa process asap. with the Belgium Embassy, > here in Tunis.
