Why FUDCon

FUDCon has always been high quality event where Contributors of Fedora from different parts of the world converge for this event to discuss ideas in person.

We have people flying in from far places to come and talk about fedora, the future of fedora which is upstream of Premier Enterprise Operating system. So if you want to know more of what future RHEL looks like, You should attend fudcon.

Fedora has best people, professionals and Developers and they all collaborate on events like FUDCon so it's best time to interact with them. We have Hackfests [1] where contributors can work together to focus on specific tasks (which could range from packaging, writing feature or some UI mockups).


Bar Camps [2] are more un-conference, where people interested in wide range of issues/topics come together to share/learn. Here speakers pitch their sessions in the morning for Bar Camp and lot of groups interested in thetopics listed can sit together and share ideas or learn. The most exciting part is anybody can standup and talk infront of 100 or so audience and share their ideas.
