[fedora-india] Incomplete Report: On Yesterday's Fedora event

[A. Mani]

Some oversights and problems dampened this event:

Almost the whole of the event organization was done by GCECT students
including Fedora contributors.
The initial organization was good.
The number of participants was high (100+)
Event Publicity level: low

The auditorium selected was an old fashioned one with nothing to write
on ... fairly inappropriate.

Punctuality ?!

Main PC for Fedora Install Demo : Fried apparently due to electricity (?)
Projector became dysfunctional after that.

(I arrived much later for my talk, so did not see. )
Possible reasons: Power surge despite UPS
Box was moved while the PC was in operation

So all speakers had to speak. ...if at all.

I had to reduce a 50 min talk to ~10 min because of the nature of the
topic (had a headache in addition).

Rahul Ghose and Prabin spoke well

Stephanie did not deliver her talk.

audience interaction was good.
