Cool!

The propose agenda is:
1. Share cool stuffs we have been doing
2. Evangelise project ideas for GSoC
3. Share the awesomeness of Fedora
4. Contributing to Fedora
5. Distribute installation media
I am not sure about student participation for the event. Saturday is a
working day for many colleges. However, if students are interested,
they can surely turn up for the event.
I spoke with the folks from FSMK about this. They said that a lot of
students (around 60) are interested in GSoC and want to know more
about it. But the agenda of our meeting is more Fedora specific.
* Will it be wise to invite the students who are solely interested in
GSoC for the meetup?
- Constraints for the above are:
- seating space
- deviate from Fedora specific discussions
- Alternate solution:
Someone from us can take part in the FSMK's meetup for GSoC
(proposed on 9th March) and put forward Fedora and it's project ideas
for GSoC.
* Or, shall the meetup comprise of only Fedora enthusiasts? We can
discuss on Fedora specific topics like:
- how to get more contributors from our neighbourhood
- evangelize Fedora as a GSoC organization in the neighbourhood
- Increase Fedora usage
Please share your feedback on this.
