I am right now in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in my role Red Hats Evangelist. It<br>
seems there is virtually no Fedora community here.<br>
<br>
Am I missing something or do we need to change that? There definitely is a<br>
lot of interest and some enthusiasm to build upon. Simple stuff like better<br>
localization, more comples stuff like having usergroups.<br>
<br>
So do we know of any work in the MEA area? Should we start focusing a bit<br>
more on this area?<br>
<br>
