Hi Ambassadors,<br>
<br>
as I said some weeks ago, we need something to show "usb pen live creator" process on fedora events.<br>
<br>
Making usb live pen is one of the most useful stuff to do during events (really cheaper and appreciated gadget). I and Luca Foppiano asked to Samuele Storari (maybe a new Fedora contributor) to design a poster showing process.<br>
<br>
I uploaded his work at this page:<br>
<a href="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/LiveUsbCreator" target="_blank">http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/LiveUsbCreator</a><br>
<br>
the idea is simple: print that poster and glue it on some "solid" support (maybe carton box). Then make a hole into poster white space to take out an usb extension cable.<br>
<br>
When a python script (developed by Matteo Castellini) recognize new usb device, launch usb creator automatically, and play an mp3 at the end of process.<br>
<br>
So we have the "usb live pen box"... Really easy to use (put usb on the poster and wait for the "finished" sound). I hope this poster can help visitors to discover our live pen service in a funny way :-)<br>
<br>
I'd like to test this "box" during next event in Italy (Liberamente - Opera - next Saturday).<br>
<br>
What do you think about this idea? I'll try to upload some shots of final result on flickr as soon as possible. We can spend a couple of minutes to improve this idea during today emea ambassadors meeting.<br>
<br>
Take care<br>
bye<br>

</blockquote></div><br>Very good work. Thank you for coming up with this idea and the Python script to automate it. I wish I had this for the last event I worked (Notacon 5).<br>I'll take a look at the script and see if there's anything I can add.<br>
<br>Thanks again.<br>
