Materials / Tools

 * Software! Let's make sure we all have the needed tools installed before we get there. If there is anything specific we need for brand book publishing, video / audio / photo editing, please list it here.
 * Gimp, Incscape and Scribus should be perhaps standard Install
 * darktable, digikam and gimp for Lightboxing and small manipulations
 * If you plan on attending some late late shows detailed below please install the following before arriving:
 * 1) yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
 * 2) yum install rpmdevtools fedora-packager


 * Cameras / video equipment

Weather
Per weather.com, we're in for rain all weekend, clearing up Monday. If we want to do outside activities on any of these days, they will probably be rained out. Dress appropriately, of course. Temperatures are about 70F (~16C) during the sunny days and lows will be in the low 40F (5C), for those night owls. Most of us are coming from cold climates and will be welcoming these conditions, but keep them in mind.

Pre-FAD Actions

 * Because of the upcoming LGM there are plenty things to do ;-)
