Fedora Activity Day - Hong Kong - May 2012
We are organizing the first meeting for Fedora users and contributors in Hong Kong ever. The first goal will be to gather the local community, get to know each other and see what we can do to develop a thriving Fedora presence in Hong Kong.
When and Where
- Date: Wed, 16 May 2012.
- Time: 7:30pm - 10:00pm, Hong Kong time (GMT +8)
- Place: Conference room, bochecha's company. The full address is:
Network Box Corporation Limited 16th Floor, Metro Loft 38 Kwai Hei Street Kwai Chung, Kowloon Hong Kong
The building also has an entrance on Kwai Fuk Road.
Coming from the MTR
At the Kwai Fong MTR station, take exit C, then get in the underground tunnel.
Get out where the sign says "TODO", and get on the nearby footbridge to cross the road.
Walk uphill on the left side of Kwai Fuk Road until there's a little alley on the left leading to the Metro Loft building.
The conference room is on the 16th floor.
Coming with the minibus
Lines 91 and 93 have a stop on Kwai Fuk Road very close to the building. You can ask "金發" ("Gum faat") to the minibus driver and he/she will know where to stop. ;)
At the minibus stop, walk uphill about 10 metres to find a little alley on the left leading to the Metro Loft building.
The conference room is on the 16th floor.
