Action
I have represented the Fedora Project and Fedora-fr during this event with a stand. I had the possibility to talk with many persons, most of whom were interested by Fedora. The possibility that I organize the 2012 edition had been mentioned, I have contacted the organization for that. In that case, I would present Fedora during a conference. I have enforced the link with local associations, what is very important because Fedora is the only GNU/Linux 's major distribution which is not represented in those associations.
Material
- CDs Fedora 14 32 bits : 15 (5 have been distributed, 2 with dons)
- T-shirts : 4
The organization had ordered many 'Linux Pratique Essentiels' (an important Linux's magazine in France) about Fedora 13, a very good article. But there was too many magazines, and the organization gave me 25 of them to promote Fedora during future events.
