FUDCon Milan: Hotel updates
by Francesco Crippa 30 Aug '11

30 Aug '11

Hi guys, there are some important updates about Hotel reservation in Milan. Yesterday we got the notification from the "UNA Hotel Mediterraneo" that all the rooms are fully booked. Fedora Group has already reserved a pool of 20 rooms (and they are still reserved for us), but unfortunately there's no more room for other people. So, we arranged another agreement with an hotel very closed to that one (Hotel Perugino). It's just 5 minutes walking from the other one. Both hotels are listed on the wiki as suggested hotels and you can find all details there. We have also the same price (85 euros per night, taxes, breakfast and wifi included). On this spreadsheet you can see the current arrangement for the rooms: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmzMMPA67hiGdEhZWUxRa2lfbFd2M0… If you need to reserve a room and your name is not there, give me a call (by mail or gTalk on fcrippa(a)byte-code.com) so that we can add your name on the spreadsheet and make the reservation to the hotel. You can also reserve the room by yourself. In that case be sure the hotel: 1. understands your language (if you speak Italian, you're fine!) ;-) 2. is aware you are part of the "Fedora Group" 3. is applying the proper daily rate (85 EUR a day, taxes, breakfast and wifi included) I'm always available in case of problems. See you in Milan soon! Take care Francesco

Fedora 16 i18n / l10n Test Week - of special interest to regional ambassadors!
by Adam Williamson 29 Aug '11

29 Aug '11

Hey, folks. Thought I'd drop a quick heads-up to the list about the Fedora 16 i18n / l10n test week that starts tomorrow - more info in my blog post here: http://www.happyassassin.net/2011/08/29/fedora-16-localization-internationa… this obviously has special interest to a lot of regional ambassadors - it's a really great opportunity to help make sure F16 has great translations for your language, proper font rendering, working input methods and so on. If everyone could pass on the word in their local area that'd be great. I apologize for the short notice of the first event (tomorrow). Thanks! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net

Thanks for the kind words. Credit for the success of this event should really be given to Magie, who coordinated the celebration of 15 teams in 7 countries in her capacity as a member of the Linux Day Advisory Council (http://linuxday.org/). She was also the team leader for the Linux Day celebration at the National Computer Center (http://linuxday.bluepoint.com.ph/).
